Intro: |C |F Am | G |F C|x2
[no cbords]
Well, big bad man come into town
Giving sweets to the children, pushed their daddies around
Made the streets so bright in the zones of blight
No more fear in the hearts of whites
[C] [F] [Am] [G]
He built a hall, put on a sho[F]w, from high abov[C]e, watched his boulders roll
[C]Then he bought Main Street and the old town hall[F] [Am]
[G]He named his price: his face on every wall.[F]
[Am]Ohh[G]h, his [F]face on ever[Am]y wal[G]l...
[C]Now the factories have all shut down[F] [Am]
[G]No more cloth stitched in this town[F] [C]
[C] [F] [Am] [G]
So the only job fo[F]r boy[C] and I, in the prison making tile shine
[C] [F] [Am]
Someda[G]y that man will c[F]ome here too[C], with that magic hat, spit and glue
[C]He?ll wash the stone, paint the[F] brick,[Am]
[G] [F]
Ren[Am]ame[G] the streets and make the clocks all tick... On time
[F]He'll make us run on [Am]time[G]
[Cborus]:
[C]And every town will celebrate so[F]meday[G] [C]
[F]Waving sweatshop flags and grande lattes[Am] [G]
[Dm] [F] [G]
Wearing cultur[Am]e on their backs, wearing spirit on their hats
[C] [F] [G]
On[G]e by one they?ll join the parade and celebrate
[C]Every town will celebrate[F] some[C]day[G]
[Intro]
Now cor[C]ners near and corners far[F] [Am]
Are so[G]mehow the same coffee bar[F] [C]
And community[C] is felt again[F] [Am]
[G]Thanks to folks I?ve never met[F] [C]
They sl[C]ayed the artists, sold their[F] arts,[Am]
[G]Gave the toddlers shopping [F]carts[C]
[C]Raised the prices, raised t[F]he rent[Am]
[G]Some days I wish that I could go back again[F]
[Am]Noo[G]oo, I [F]can?t go b[Am]ack again[G]
[Cborus]
[Bridge]:
[C]Just like they do in Florida
Down in Celebr[F]ation, Florida
And when every r[G#]oad is Main Street, [Cm]U.S.A.[G]
We?ll be safe[C]ly kept at bay
From any disruption o[F]r display
Of [G#]truth, adve[Cm]nture, lov[G]e and rage[Cm]
[G#]Truth, advent[Cm]ure, love[G] and rage[Cm]
[G#]Truth, adve[Cm]nture, love[G] and rage HEY!
[Cborus]
[C] [F] [G] [C]
Every Town wil[G]l celebrate, Every Town will celebrate
[C]Every To[F]wn will celebrate[G] someday![C]
