_ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ You're born in debt and you're never free, you live all your life for the company, and
the smoke [Bm] falls down on your mercury. _ _
As the paint chips off [A] your walls, slag cars roll to the east side. _
Down the slope flows a hellfire slide, and the kids [G] grow up too fast [D] inside.
And they're spitting in the high [A] school halls, it's a hot [D] rock town, _ _ [C#m] _ it's a hot [Bm] rock town.
_ _ It'll ground [D] you down, _ _ [C] _ it's a hot [A] rock town. _ _ _ _

Smoke drifts up and slowly west, like it's a suit that's always pressed.
Far [Bm] away like a day of rest, when the funeral [A] wagon calls. _
Chefs in a hold zone Saturday night, _ blasting past the hotel lights.
[G] Laugh in the face of a day [D] that might come, and the rocks should rumble [A] and fall.
It's a hot [D] rock town, _ _ [C#m] _ it's a hot [Bm] rock town.
_ _ _ It'll ground [D] you down, _ [C] _ it's a hot [A] rock town. _ _ _ _

It's that rare world like on TV, where people look better than you and me.
[Bm] If there is, it might as well be _ far [Am] beyond the sun.
[A] _
Lovers bring each other's hearts, [D#] [A] beautiful people walk in the park.
And no [G] one coughs in the [D] morning dark, and nobody hears [A] no ball.
It's a hot [D] rock town, _ _ [C#m] _ it's a hot [Bm] rock town.
