	  		Intro

verse 1 
A              Bm            D         E          A 
I'm not one to look behind I know that times must change 
A                 Bm             D         E    A 
But over there in Barrytown they do things very strange 
F#m                      C#m 
And though you're not my enemy 
  D           C#m       Bm      E 
I like things like they used to be 
    A                      Bm                
And though you'd like some company 
    D        C#m     Bm 
I'm standing by myself 
   D         C#m      Bm 
Go play with someone else 
      F#m    E        D     C#m      Bm        E      A 
I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown 

Interlude/Riff

verse 2 
A                 Bm          D       E        A 
Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard 
A               Bm             D        E       A 
I just read the Daily News and swear by every word 
    F#m                  C#m 
And don't think that I'm out of line 
    D        C#m     Bm      E   
For speaking out for what is mine 
A                   Bm 
I'd like to see you do just fine 
     D      C#m       Bm 
But look at what you wear 
        D       C#m      Bm 
And the way you cut your hair 
      F#m    E        D     C#m      Bm        E    A 
I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown 

Riff/2 
A  D/A   D/A  E/A  

Bridge 
F          Am                         Bb 
  In the beginning we recall that the word was hurled 
F           Am                     Bb 
  Barrytown people got to be from another world 

Riff 
A  D/A   D/A  E/A   A  D/A  G/A A D/A G/A  A  

verse 3 
A                Bm               D      E        A 
Leave me or I'll be just like the others you will meet 
A                 Bm             D       E       A 
They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street 
    F#m                 C#m 
And don't you scream or make a shout 
     D       C#m     Bm    E   
It's nothing you can do about 
A                  Bm 
It was there where you came out 
       D       C#m     Bm      
It's a special lack of grace 
      D      C#m     Bm         
I can see it in your face 
      F#m    E        D     C#m      Bm        E    A 
I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown
