[Intro]
|A |A Asus4 |A |A Asus4 |

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
[Verse 1]
A Bm7 D D/E A
I'm not one to look behind, I know that times must change
A Bm7 D D/E A
But over there in Barrytown, they do things very strange
F#m7 C#m7
And though you're not my enemy
D A/C# Bm Esus4 E
I like things like they used to be -e
A Bm7
And though you'd like some company
D A/C# Bm
I'm standing by my self
D A/C# Bm
Go play with someone else
[Chorus]
F#m E D A/C# Bm D/E
I can see by what you carry that you come from Barry
|A |A Asus4 |A |A Asus4 |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
town
[Verse 2]
A Bm7 D D/E A
Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard
A Bm7 D D/E A
I just read the Daily News and swear by every word
F#m7 C#m7
And don't think that I'm out of line
D A/C# Bm Esus4 E
For speaking out for what is mine
A Bm7
I'd like to see you do just fine
D A/C# Bm
But look at what you wear
D A/C# Bm
And the way you cut your hair
[Chorus]
F#m E D A/C# Bm D/E
I can see by what you carry that you come from Barry
|A |A Asus4 |
* * * * * * * *
town
[Bridge]
F Am7 F/Bb
In the be ginning we recall that the word was hurled
F Am7 F/Bb
Barrytown people got to be from a nother wo-o-o-o-o
|A |A Asus4 |A |A Asus4 |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
-orld
[Verse 3]
A Bm7 D D/E A
Leave me or I'll be just like the others you will meet
A Bm7 D D/E A
They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street
F#m7 C#m7
And don't you scream or make a shout
D A/C# Bm Esus4 E
It's nothing you can do a bout
A Bm7
It was there when you came out
D A/C# Bm
It's a special lack of grace
D A/C# Bm
I can see it in your face
[Outro]
F#m E D A/C# Bm D/E
I can see by what you carry that you come from Barry
|A |A Asus4 |A |A Asus4 |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
town
|A |A Asus4 |A |A Asus4 |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
