This is a Bfirst rate town
But all you ever notice
Are the Eways it's stretched too far
And it has Bbeen knocked down
But some of us are still
Left Ehere between the scars
When you Blook around
All you ever notice is
That you Ecan not see the stars
This is a Bfirst rate town, a first rate town you Eknow
You just can't see very Bfar

When the Blast door closed
You packed your clothes
And went Eback to Montreal
Said it was Bcolder there
A chill hangs into the air
It Ehelps you forget it all
You C#mleft and empty bookshelf
That I Edid not fill till fall
This is a C#mfirst rate town a first rate town you Eknow
You just can't see it at Ball

Well G#mit will Bfade as Eall things must
I G#mloved you Bbut, you Edidn't love me enough
G#mWinter Bcomes, the Ecar will rust
I'll C#mstart it up, then Ealways run a little rough
This is a Bfirst rate town
And all you ever notice
Are the Eways it's stretched too far
They keep the Bdeath rates down
It's colder than a winter
Spent in Edefrosting cars
We C#mtalked a lot of leaving
Didn't Ethink you'd get that far
This is a C#mfirst rate town a first rate town you Eknow
You just can't see very Bfar
