D G D G
The lakes and pines they bleed of beauty and grace
D G D G
And the rivers they run wild like an endless race
D G D G
The forests soar so high then fall to the sea
D G D G
As church bells ring and sing in harmony
Em G D
I heard them say they're shuttin' Detroit down
Em G A
But I won't leave cuz' this is my hometown
G A D
And it's times like these we can't replace
G A D
It's times like these we must embrace
G A D A G
And even though it's bittersweet and brings us to our knees
Em G D
It makes us who we are, in times like these
D G D G
The concrete and steel stand strong against the wind
D G D G
With the memories of what was and what has been
D G D G
The sounds of sweet soul music and blue-collar blues
D G D G
There were 17 colors for a Chevy all red white and blue
Em G D
I heard them say that you can't save that town
Em G A
But I won't leave, I will stand my ground
G A D
And it's times like these we can't replace
G A D
It's times like these we must embrace
G A D A G
And even though it's bittersweet and brings us to our knees

It makes us who we are, in times like these

The ice and snow give way to a new spring bloom
In the wake that hope and faith they will be home soon
D G D G
A new day dawns as the good Lord shines from above
D G D G
Cuz in the rubble and rust there remains a whole lotta love
Em G D
And I was here watchin' it all go down
Em G A
And I'll still be, when it comes back 'round
G A D
And it's times like these we can't replace
G A D
It's times like these we must embrace
G A D A G
And even though it's bittersweet and brings us to our knees
Em G D
It makes us who we are, in times like these
