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

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