Standard Tuning Capo on 3
intro: D Em(2x)
[Verse 1]
D Em
Not a whole lot going on, a small town Friday night
G D
Revving up at a red light, on your mark get set go
D
Past a mom and pop restaurant
Em
Same four trucks parked out front
G
I guess you gotta make your own fun
D
When you're stuck in a place this slow
A Bm
There's only two means of salvation
G D
around here that seem to work
G G9
Whiskey or the Bible, a shot glass or revival
[chorus]
D Em
When you don't seem to run on either side of the fence
People act like you don't make sense
G
These big town dreams that I've been chasing
D
Will never come true if I wind up staying
And I don't want to fall in, the same rut
Em G
That everybody here seems to be stuck in now
Bm
Why do I hang around
G A D
In this church pew or bar stool kind of town
D Em 2x
[Verse 2]
D Em
I'm like that AM station, that never comes in right
G
Till you pass the city limit sign,
D
that's the only time it all gets clear
Em
Well it's crystal clear that I, just need to find
G
A place where there is no lines
D
And nothing like it is around here
A Bm
Someplace where it don't feel like this
G D
world revolves around
G G9
Whiskey or the Bible, a shot glass or revival
D Em
When you don't seem to run on either side of the fence
People act like you don't make sense
G
These big town dreams that I've been chasing
D
Will never come true if I wind up staying
And I don't want to fall in, the same rut
Em G
That everybody here seems to be stuck in now
Bm
Why do I hang around
G A D
In this church pew or bar stool kind of town
D Em G D
A Bm
Here it sometimes feels just like this
G D
world revolves around
G G9
Whiskey or the Bible, a shot glass or revival
D Em
When you don't seem to run on either side of the fence
People act like you don't make sense
G
These big town dreams that I've been chasing
D
Will never come true if I wind up staying
And I don't want to fall in, the same rut
Em G
That everybody here seems to be stuck in now
Bm
Why do I hang around
G A D
In this church pew or bar stool kind of town
Em G A D
Yeah I need to get out, of this church pew or bar stool kind of town
Em D
yeah yeah
