Tom: C C [Verse 1] C We played cops and robbers in the streets around our house Am It was fun and games back then but it ain't funny now F Here in our town [Verse 2] C Just a bunch of kids skipping church and acting so cool Am But now we're lighting candles on a Friday afternoon F Here in our town [Chorus] C We were raised in the shadows of crosses and flags Am When we pledge allegiance we take off our hats F Here in our town C We say yes ma'am and no ma'am We love we don't hate Am That world that's gone crazy it don't have a place F Here in our town C G Here in our town [Verse 3] C The only color we care about is that football jersey blue Am So I don't know who the hell that is up there on the news F That ain't our town [Chorus] C We were raised in the shadows of crosses and flags Am When we pledge allegiance we take off our hats F Here in our town C We say yes ma'am and no ma'am We love we don't hate Am That world that's gone crazy it don't have a place F Here in our town C G Here in our town [Bridge] Am We're better than this G Tougher than tough F We might get knocked down Dm G But we get back up Am F Yeah [Chorus] C We were raised in the shadows of crosses and flags Am When we pledge allegiance we take off our hats F Here in our town C We say yes ma'am and no ma'am We love we don't hate Am That world that's gone crazy it don't have a place F Here in our town C G Here in our town, yeah
