Little Man, Alan Jackson Capo I Intro: C, F Verse 1 C G remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk F Lookin' in windows at things I couldn't want C G There's johnson's hardware and morgans jewelry F And the ol' Lee king's and the pots they carried C F They were the little man C F The little man Verse 2 C G I go back now and the stores are all empty F Except for an old coke sign from 1950 C G Boarded up like they never existed F Or renovated and called historic districts C F There goes the little man C There goes the little man Chorus: Am F Now the court square's just a set of streets C G That the people go round but they seldom think Am F Bout the little man that built this town C G Before the big money shut em down C F And killed the little man C Oh the little man Same all the way through Verse 3 He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat The new stores came where you do it yourself You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf Forget about the little man Forget about that little man Verse 4 He hung on there for a few more years But he couldn't sell slurpees And he wouldn't sell beer Now the bank rents the station To a man down the road And they sell velvet Elvis and Second-hand clothes There goes little man There goes another little man Chorus then lead Verse 5 Now the are lined up in a concrete strip You can buy the world with just one trip And save a penny cause it's jumbo size They don't even realize They'er killin' the little man Oh the little man Chorus Verse 6 It wasn't long when I was a child An old black man came with his plow He broke the ground where we grew our garden Back before we'd all forgot about the little man The little man Long live the little man God bless the little man Pretty easy song basic chords Enjoy!!!
