V1:
I’ve been working from this closet and when I go outside
I stand far away but close enough to see your eyes
We’re all in this together and things will turn out fine
I guess it’s just a matter of time

Chorus:
I’m doing my part to help the people in my hometown
Keeping my distance from my ten friends hanging around
I’d rather be standing six feet away
Than lying six feet under the ground

V2:
I’ve been deafened by the silence and never saw these streets so clean
It’s like the people moved away and I’m living in a dream
Did we bring this on ourselves and what does it all mean
These changing times are changing me

Chorus:
I’m doing my part to help the people in my hometown
Keeping my distance from my ten friends hanging around
I’d rather be standing six feet away
Than lying six feet under the ground

Bridge:
When I was young I learned to drive on crooked roads
And I had all the nerve
I never dreamed I’d see the day
I’d want to flatten out a curve

Chorus:
I’m doing my part to help the people in my hometown
Keeping my distance from my ten friends hanging around
I’d rather be standing six feet away
Than lying six feet under the ground

Tag:
Come stand next to me six feet away
Come stand next to me six feet away
