      C5     G5         F5         G5
Well, I was born in a small town,
C5     G5         F5         G5
and I live in a small town
C5        G5        A5
Probably die in a small town;
         D5           G5
Oh those small communities

C5      G5              F5         G5
All my friends are so small town
C5          G5           F5              G5
My parents live in the same small town
C5  G5         A5
My job is so small town,
         D5              G5
provides little opportunity

C5 G5 F5  G5 x2

C5        G5    F5         G5
Educated in a small town;
C5                  G5          F5         G5
taught the fear of Jesus in a small town
C5          G5     A5
Used to daydream in that small town;
 D5                             G5
another boring romantic, that's me

         C5       G5        F5         G5
But I've seen it all in a small town;
C5            G5         F5         G5
had myself a ball in a small town
C5           G5                        A5
Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town;
          D5                   G5
now she's small town just like me

     F5         C5                 F5              C5
No I cannot forget from where it is that I come from ,
     F5              C5          G5
I cannot forget the people who love me
            F5    C5         F5             C5
Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town,
    F5             C5              G5
and people let me be just what I wanna be

C5            G5        F5       G5
Got nothing against a big town;
C5              G5            F5                         G5
still hayseed enough to say look who's in the big town?
C5      G5           A5
But my bed is in a small town;
               D5              G5
Oh, and that's good enough for me

     C5     G5         F5         G5
Well I was born in a small town,
C5         G5            F5         G5
and I can breathe in a small town
C5     G5           A5
Gonna die in this small town;
           D5                          G5
and that's probably where they'll bury me
