A (5th fret) E Bm
Jimmy was a local boy, but he's seen much more than a change in the weather
A E Bm
Sitting in a uniform of the three-piece suit and ribbons from his past
A E Bm
Looking for a little boy at the bar with the mouth who thinks he's clever now
A E Bm
Dreaming of a day that he got home from a war to his childhood sweetheart
F#m E D
Now he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him,
F#m E D
Just a feeling, of an empty place, deteriorating
Jimmy's always been a local, but he's seen much more than I'm bound to ever
A member of a dying breed that sat and wait as it all just falls apart
Thinking of a day that's oh so long ago, he can't remember right
There was a time a man could still be a man and proud to use his heart
Now he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him,
There was really only one,
A* E
Now he misses how she sounds, he frowns,
Bm
He lines them up and he puts them down
A E
It's sad, this town
Bm
Seems to fail to appreciate the man
[Guitar Solo]
| A | E | Bm | Bm | x2
(one strum only)
Now he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him,
No he don't feel anymore, coz Jimmy's so thick skinned
F#m E D
And a long, long time ago, when he could break her heart
F#m E D
There was really only one,
A* E
Now he misses how she sounds, he frowns,
Bm
He lines them up and he puts them down
A E
It's sad, this town
Bm
Seems to fail to appreciate
A E
what he's about
Bm
Lines them up and puts them down
A E Bm
It's sad this town seems to fail to appreciate the man
[Guitar Solo]
