In a Razor Town  Jason Isbell

Since this song is mostly picked I tabbed out the guitar parts and put the
relative tonalities above the register rather than place the chords above the
lyrics. Each line of lyric = one time through the line of tab above it.

In a razor town you take whoever you think you can keep around
And there's an echoed sound that permeates that sidewalk where she shuffles round
It's a big machine, used to be the avenue of changing dreams
And she's a lonely thing, sweeping up the glitter while she pulls the strings
b>Chorus 1/b>

The way it used to be, I wasn't there to see it working properly
And now it seems to me that both of you were suffering
You know I've heard her say that you're the only reason she's alive today
And I just turned away, thinking maybe she was right

Cause in a razor town the only thing that matters tends to bring you down
And there's no way around, but maybe we can barrel through
