Lyrics & chords

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

[Verse 1]
Ain't it [G]strange how people
change an[C]d almost o[G]vernight
[C]Who once was[G] a country girl is now a,
[D]a s[G]ocialite
We're proud for you,
but when you're through
And [C]seek some common [G]ground
[C]Oh, we [G]miss you on the [D]old side [G]of town

[Verse 2]
[G]
We [D]still drink cokes and tell old jokes
and [C]bowl at Splits and [G]Strikes
[C]Country music [G]still plays on
the jukebox every [D]night[G]
Society is not for me,
[C]but I can still be [G]found
[C]Oh, we [G]miss you on the [D]old side
[G]of town

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
RSVP is not for me [C]an
d black tie's not my [G]style
I [C]thought you'd like to [G]know 'cause
you ain't been here for [D]awhile
We [G]read about your tour de force,
we're [C]glad you get [G]around
[C]But we [G]miss you on the [D]old side of town
[G]

[Verse 4]
We [D]still drink cokes and tell old jokes and
[C]we bowl at Splits and [G]Strikes
George [C]Jones is still a [G]hero on the
jukebox every [D]night[C]
[D]So [G]ciety is not for me,
but [C]I can still be f[G]ound
[C]Oh, we [G]miss you on [D]the old [G]side of town
[C]Babe, [G]we miss you on the
[D]old side of town
[G][C][G]
