[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][Dsus4][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Funny how a pub
is like a [G]heart that won't give in
[D]Every other shop has closed the [G]door
[C]We can't make a footy team,
[G]the school is closing down
There [D]really is no town anymore
[G]Maybe [D]I'm just thankful
for my [G]childhood
When [D]life was full of never being [G]bored
When [D]every face was eager
to be [G]friendly
[D]Singing at the church to please the [G]Lord
[C]Holy, holy, holy Lord God sang Mrs. Bro[G]wn
By [C]golly, I just miss the [G]simple innocence
[D]Of honest people in a country
[G]town[C][G][C][D][G]
So all [C]power to the [G]farmer's markets
You're [D]bringing back the
street that [G]we all knew
Where [C]every shop is eager
to [G]be friendly
[D]Where I can hear that how do you [G]do?
It [D]worries me the way
the world is [G]going
[D]Something tells me it's
all [G]going wrong
[D]Monster stores all along the [G]highway
[D]Not a street that we can all be[G]long
[C]Holy, holy, holy Lord God
sang mrs [G]brown by [C]golly
i just missed a [G]simple innocence
of [D]honest people in a country [G]town
[C][G][C][D][G][C][G][D]
[G]
Yeah, [C]funny how a pub
is like [G]a heart that won't give in
[D]Every other shop has closed the [G]door
[C]We can't make a footy team,
[G]the school is
Closing down,
there [D]really is no town any[G]more
May[D]be I'm just thankful
for my [G]childhood
When [D]life was full of love and being [G]free
Where [D]every face was eager to be [G]friendly
And [D]home was just as far
as I could [G]see[C]
Howdy, howdy, howdy
Lord God, thank Mrs. [G]Brown
By [C]golly, I just miss the [G]simple innocence
Of [D]honest people in a country town
