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 

Chorus 1 

 Am       G       C               Am      G       C                             x1

Take a long last look before she turns to stone 


 Am       G       C               F               G                          x1

verse 2 

  C                                G       C                                    x4

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 

Am        G       C               Am      G       C                             x1

So say your last goodbyes,  make it short and sweet 


 Am       G       C               F               G                           x1

There ain't no way for you to fly with her hanging on your feet

F                     C 
 Let her go out if she wants to 
F                          C 
 And if she don't go out yourself 
F                         Am 
 Don't take sorry for an answer 
F                             G 
 Unless you really want what's left

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 

  C       G       C                                                             x1
