Am                                     F 
I used to love this town and this neighborhood 
                  Am                     F 
The streets were safe, the schools were good 
               Am                 F 
The mill was hummin' twenty-four seven 
                      Am              F 
I was formin' on the line, three to eleven 
               Am                  F 
But eighteen months, and two days ago 
                 Am        F        G 
The Mill closed down and moved to Mexico

                  Am                   F                       G
