[Verse 1]
G                           C      G
Just like a long kiss, on a silver screen
                                 C           G      C
Was I right in the sunset, just a short sweet dream
             G      C  G
It fades into nothin’
                           C             G
Two hearts on the run, in a place called love

                         C         G        C
Chasin’ fool's gold, in a temporary  rush  of forever
           G        C G
Man, it was somethin’


[Chorus]
        C
Yeah, it used to be, you could walk around here
              G                        Em           G
And there was life and laughter, and a song in your ear
         C                                    D
Yeah, it used to be, but you wouldn’t know it now
             Em        D  C
Used to be a boom town
             Em        D  G   C G
Used to be a boom town


[Verse 2]
G                              C         G
This place gets dark, when the sun sinks low
                                   C                 G
There’s abandoned streets, and the memories come and go,
       C              G
Woh oh oh oh,  like a tumbleweed
G                           C                G
Every door is closed, every window's boarded up

                                  C          G         C
If these walls could talk, they’d talk about love, o-o-o-ove
    G
And you and me


[Chorus]
        C
Yeah, it used to be, you could walk around here
              G                        Em           G
And there was life and laughter, and a song in your ear
         C                                    D
Yeah, it used to be, but you wouldn’t know it now
             Em        D  C
Used to be a boom town
             Em        D  C
Used to be a boom town

[Chorus]
C
Yeah, it used to be, you could walk around here
              G                        Em           G
And there was life and laughter, and a song in your ear
         C                                    D
Yeah, it used to be, but you wouldn’t know it now
             Em        D  C
Used to be a boom town
             Em        D  C
Used to be a boom town


[Outro]
             Em        D  C
Used to be a boom town
C            G
Used to be a boom town
