[Intro]
F# - Bmaj7 2x
[Verse 1]
F#
This is a first
rate
town
But all you ever
notice
Are the ways it\'s
stretched too far
Bmaj7
And it has been
knocked
down
But some of us are
still
Left here between
the scars
F#
When you look around
All you ever notice is
That you can not see
the stars
Bmaj7
This is a first rate
town,
a first rate town you
know
You just can\'t see
very far
[Chorus]
F#
You can never leave
F#
\'Cause they\'ll hold
it against me
Bmaj7
You can never leave
Bmaj7
\'Cause they\'ll hold
it against me
F#
You can never leave
F#
\'Cause they\'ll hold
it against me
Bmaj7
You can never leave

[Verse 2]
F#
When the last door
closed
You packed your
clothes
And went back to
Montreal
Bmaj7
Said it was colder
there
A chill hangs into
the air
It helps you forget
it all
G#m
You left and empty
bookshelf
That I did not fill
till fall
B
This is a first
rate
town a first rate
town
you know
You just can\'t see it
at all
[Chorus]
F#
You can never leave
F#
\'Cause they\'ll
hold it
against me
Bmaj7
You can never leave
Bmaj7
\'Cause they\'ll hold
it
against me
F#
You can never leave
F#
\'Cause they\'ll hold
it
against me
Bmaj7
You can never leave
[Bridge]
D#m F#
Well it will fade
Bmaj7
as all
things must
D#m F#
I loved you but,
Bmaj7
you didn\'t
love me enough
D#m F#
Winter comes,
Bmaj7
the car
will rust
D#m F#
I\'ll start it up,
then
Bmaj7
always run a
little rough
[Verse 3]
F#
This is a first rate
town
F#
And all you ever notice
F#
Are the ways it\'s
stretched
too far
Bmaj7
They keep the death rates
down
Bmaj7
It\'s colder than a winter
Bmaj7
Spent in defrosting cars
G#m
We talked a lot of leaving
G#m
Didn\'t think you\'d get that
far
Bmaj7
This is a fiirst rate town a
fiirst rate town you know
F#
You just can\'t see very far
