Verse 1:
A D A D
I've been bumming 'round these streets, wasting days and getting high
A D A D
Can't say where I'll be in five years but I'll be getting by
A D A D
Not saying I don't want bigger and better things
A D
I'm quite content to sit and see what tomorrow brings

They say time will tell, but time ain't talking
A D F#m D
They say you're almost there, still I keep walking over this ground
F#m D A D A D
But that ain't got me down, I'm just lost in a Boomtown
Verse 2:
From East Park Street down Broadway, you can say I've been around
Lots of places in my memories, and some I'm not too fond of now
But if you want a better future, you've got to understand your past
'Cus life will fly by, so make every moment last
They say time will tell, but time ain't talking
They say you're almost there, still I keep walking over this ground
But that ain't got me down, I'm just lost in a Boomtown

Verse 3:
Well, it doesn't matter where I've lived, just that I've lived at all
I've busted down doors and I've run straight into brick walls
But a little bit of something's better than nothing at all
And I just pick 'em right up every time the cards fall
They say time will tell, but time ain't talking
They say you're almost there, still I keep walking over this ground
But that ain't got me down...no, no...I'm just lost in a Boomtown
