  Intro:     D5


  D5                   G5
 Cops showed up at a little old six 
           B5             A5
 With the FBI and their black crown vicks 
  D5                            G5
 Cuffed coach Martin with his face in the ground 
 B5                          A5
 Neighbors say he got off a couple a rounds 
  G5
 Hundred thousand dollars in an old suitcase 
  A5
 He had a green house in his crawl space 


           D5                    G5
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 
       E5                         A5
 There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out 
     D5                          G5
 And everybody knows cause the word gets around 
           B5                   A5                   
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 

 D5    G5    E5    A5


   D5             G5
 Stereotypical preachers wife 
 B5                   A5
 Everybody loved her she was so nice 
 D5                             G5
 Never told a soul about the things he did
 B5                             A5
 Till she took a bottle to the back of his head 
  G5
 They say she simply told 911 
     A5
 Now he deserved what I just done


           D5                    G5
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 
       E5                         A5
 There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out 
     D5                          G5
 And everybody knows cause the word gets around 
           B5                   A5                   
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town

 D5    G5    E5    A5   x2
 

     D5                  G5
 Now everyones proud of Mary Lou 
     B5                    A5
 She had a full ride to a private school 
  D5                       G5
 Gonna be a doctor or a lawyer someday 
B5              A5
 She's 17 and three months late 
G5
 We all thought that she'd never been kissed but 
A5
 She doesn't know who the daddy is 


           D5                    G5
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 
       E5                         A5
 There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out 
     D5                          G5
 And everybody knows cause the word gets around 
           B5                   A5                   
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town

 D5     G5    E5    A5    x3

 End on D5
