Chords:
I made a mess of this town
Now every sidewalk crack
Either knocks me down
Or breaks somebody's back
And every face I see
As I look around
Says it's time to leave
You made a mess of this town
((Strumming changes here for brief instrumental))
With a spring in my step and a song on my lips
I came and found out how big this town really is
Confusing lovers and confusing friends
Been making the same mistakes again and again
'Til all the guys at the bar
They stay where they are
All the girls on the block
Well you know how girls talk
All the lights on the street
Incandescent and mean
Cause the word got around
You made a mess of this town
(( The song continues on from there and I'm not going to list all the lyrics, but you
be able to follow the rest of the song by listening and looking at the previous chord progressions))
