[E]
[A] Kids are driving Saturday [E] afternoon, pass me by
[A] I'm just savoring [E] familiar sights
[A] We share some history, [E] this town and I
[A] And I [B] can't stop that long [G#]-forgotten feeling of him
[A] Time to book a room and stay [E] tonight
[A] Number one is to find some friends [E] to say you're doing well
[A] After all this time you boys [E] look just the same
[A] Number two is to happy out [E] at the one of the two hotels
[A] Settling to [B] play, do you [G#] remember so and so?
[A] Number three [B] is to never say [E] his name
And all [A] the flame trees [B] will blind the weary [F#m] driver
And [A] there's nothing else [B] could set fire to [E] this town
There's [A] no change, there's [B] no pace
[C#m] Everything within [E] its place
Just makes [A] it harder to [B] believe
That he [E] won't be around
[A] Oh, who needs that sentimental [E] bullshit anyway?
[A] You know it takes more than just [A] a memory [E] to make me cry
[E]
[A] And I'm happy just to sit here [E] around a table with old friends
[A] See which one of us can tell the biggest lies
[E] And [A] there's a girl, she's [A] falling in love
Near where [E] the pianola stands
[A] With a young local factory-off worker [E] just holding hands
And [A] I'm wondering if he'll [G#m] go or if he'll [B] stay
[C] Do you [G] remember?
Nothing [C] stops us from the [G] fear in [D] our day
[E] All [A] the flame trees will [B] blind the weary driver
[F#m]
And [A] there's nothing else could [B] set fire to this [E] town
There's [A] no change, there's [B] no pace
