[verse (1)]
G"for sale by oDwner" Csign on highwEmay 5D9
a signalEm of the Dtimes, a Cturning of thEme paDge G
there used to be nDothing Chere but that nothingEm disappDeared
the pond, the barn, the Emfarm, the fDields have Clong since beenEm replaDced C
asphalt parking where that Dten pew, pentecostal stood
Cfast food, four lanes and a sDubdivided neighborhood
[chorus]
Gthe walls of the wDorld are closin'Em in
the spBmreadin' city spreads usC thin
we can't sGeem to make our eCnds meet the bEmlackD G
nеver would've thDought it wouldn'tEm last
a way of lBmife that timе moved Cpast
what i woGuldn't give to hCave the back EmforDty Gback

[verse (2)]
maybe i'm a sDuckerC for knowing who EmlivesD next door
a view from Emmy back pDorch, aC pinch of peace anEmd qDuieGt
i can't get back tDhe used toC bes, so i hang on to thEme memoDries
of when i could still lookEm up and Dsee theC stars not street lightsD shining
[chorus]
Gthe walls of the wDorld are closin'Em in
the spBmreadin' city spreads usC thin
we can't sGeem to make our eCnds meet the bEmlackD G
nеver would've thDought it wouldn'tEm last

[outro]
Gnow i get that Dprogress has its Emplace
and no Bmregard for what it Ctakes
wish it would Gslow its pace and cCut us all some sEmlacDk
'cGause it's all chaDnging way too Emfast
a way of Dlife that time movedC past
what i woGuldn't give to hCave the back EmforDty Gback
