[Verse 1]
G# Fm C# C#
I grew up on the Indiana side of Chicago
A#m C#/G# Fm Fm
With the rusty steel mills belching in the westward wind
G# Fm C# C#
I watched Mom and Dad trying to clean their sorrows
A#m C#/G# Fm Fm
With my brothers and me at old Lake Michigan
[Chorus]
D#
There's a little boy
Fm
He's got big brown eyes
D#
He's got swimming trunks
A#
‘bout twice his size
D#
Yeah he's looking at a steel mill sunset
Fm
Skipping a stone,
C# C#/F A#m G# D#
"Hey boy, ain't you a little young to feel so alone?"
[Verse 2]
G# Fm C#
Well they changed the name of my hometown when we moved away
A#m C#/G# Fm
Now it's more than words that I don't recognize
D#/G G# Fm C#
That kid down at the filling station tried to keep my change from a twenty
A#m C#/G# Fm
I could see that cold assurance in his eyes
[Verse 3]
D# Fm
Hey you need ten dollars for the rainy day?
D# A#
Yeah save and go to college or just get away get away get away
C# D# Fm
Or you could spend that money on a two-day stone
C# C#/F A#m G# D#
Oh, there are worse things in this world than being alone let me tell you now...

[Verse 4]
G# Fm C#
So, if you're driving from Chicago, east of Gary
A#m C#/G# Fm
And you find a fallen town that has two names
G# Fm C#
There'll be no one to possibly remember
A#m C#/G# Fm
A# little lonesome brown-eyed boy who went by James
[Chorus]
D#
Oh the mill's shut down
Fm
But the air's still sour
D#
You get a hotel room
A#
You gotta pay by the hour
D#
Oh the good old days
Fm
They're just good and gone
C# C#/F A#m G# D#
Like autumn leaves on a burning lawn
[Outro]
G# D#/G Fm D# C#
Yeah I grew up on the Indiana side of Chicago
A#m Fm
With the rusty steel mills belching in the westward wind
