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

                   Em             G         A                 D
Yeah I need to get out, of this church pew or bar stool kind of town
Em    D
yeah yeah
