Local Boy (Acoustic)

Jimmy was a local boy but he's seen much more

Than a change in the weather

Sitting in a uniform of a three piece suit

And the ribbons from his pastLooking for a little boy at the bar

With the mouth who thinks he's clever now

Dreaming of a day that he got home

From the war to his childhood sweetheartNo, he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him

Just a feeling of an empty place deterioratingJimmy was a local boy but he's seen much more

Than I'm bound to ever

A member of a dying breed

That sat and wait as it all just falls apartDreaming of a day that's oh so long ago

That he can't remember right

There was a time a man could still be a man

And be proud to use his heartNo, he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him

There was really only one, now he misses how she soundsHe frowns

Line 'em up and he puts them down

It's sad, this town

Seems to fail to appreciate the manNo, he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him

No, he don't feel anymore 'cause Jimmy's so thick skinned

And a long, long time ago when he could break your heart

There was really only one, now he misses how she soundsHe frowns

Line 'em up and he puts them down

It's sad, this town

Seems to fail to appreciate what he's aboutLine 'em up and he puts them down

It's sad, this town

Seems to fail to appreciate the man
