Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
There's  a for sale sign on a big 'ole rusty tractor
Can't  miss it, it's the first thing that you see
Just  up the road a pale blue water tower
Says  "I love Jenny" painted in bright green
Hey  that's my uncle Bill there by the courthouse
He'll  be lowering the flag when the sun goes down
 And this is my town,  na na na  na na
 Yeah,  this is my  town, na na na  na na
 (Hey)  Where I  was born, where I  was raised
 Where  I keep all my yesterdays
 Where I  ran off cause I  got mad
 And it came  to blows with my  old man
 Where I  came back to settle  down
 It's where  they'll put me in  the ground
 This is my  town, na na na  na na
 Yeah,  this is my  town, na na na  na na,  my town
 There ain't much going on here since they closed the mill
 That whistle still blows everyday at noon
 A bunch of us still go down to the diner
 Wonder if that interstate's still comin' through
 But come Sunday mornin' service at the Church of Christ
 Well there ain't an empty seat to be found
 REPEAT CHORUS
 Well I bought and painted up that rusty tractor
 You can't miss it, it's sitting right there in our yard
 The county came and took that water tower
 And that's Jenny with a baby in the car
 Well we're off to Sunday service at the Church of Christ
 And if we want a seat we better leave right now
   <---(one strum on each of these)
 And maybe later, me and ol' T-Roy will show you around
 Our town,  na na na  na na
 Yeah,  this is my  town, na na na  na na
 Yeah,  where I  was born, where I  was raised....
 (repeat the rest of chorus)
