[00:00.00]TOM PETTY - This Old Town
[00:19.69]Living free is gaining on me
[00:26.50]Can t keep ahead of my dreams
[00:33.71]My relief turned out a thief
[00:40.69]Smooth as rocks in the stream
[00:47.09]This old town is a sad affair
[00:50.37]You be glad you re not there
[00:53.65]It ties your hands
[00:55.42]It spikes your drink
[00:57.31]I d say more
[01:00.90]But I can t think
[01:07.01]Lazy Jim took a bottle with him
[01:14.00]Tried to flag down a train
[01:20.96]Left a note
[01:23.32]Couldn t read what he wrote
[01:28.07]A light came on in my brain
[01:34.44]This old town is a sad affair
[01:37.74]You be glad you re not there
[01:41.20]It ties your hands
[01:42.96]It spikes your drink
[01:44.72]I d say more
[01:48.37]But I can t think
[01:54.52]The hills are gold
[01:57.75]Mornings are cold
[02:01.05]Don t know a soul on the street
[02:08.17]I keep to myself like everyone else
[02:15.30]Nobody says much to me
[02:43.10]Go to bed
[02:45.12]Fight thoughts in my head
[02:49.47]In the two in between wake and sleep
[02:56.77]Rats to kill
[02:59.39]Contracts to fill
[03:03.78]It s on ice
[03:05.55]But it won t keep
[03:09.71]This old town is a sad affair
[03:13.10]You be glad you re not there
[03:16.63]It ties your hands
[03:18.27]It spikes your drink
[03:20.11]I d say more
[03:23.67]But I can t think
[03:29.22]This old town is a sad affair
[03:32.34]You be glad you re not there
[03:35.81]It ties your hands
[03:37.52]It spikes your drink
[03:39.42]I d say more
[03:43.00]But I can t think
