this town Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]We had a girl that came in with a drug overdose the other day. And she got real belligerent. And she bit one of the nurses. (Oh man). And,
I mean, she bit (Ohhh) you could see every tooth (Nooo! Hehe). It took two or three of us to get her off of her. It's a crazy Wednesday

[Verse 2]
We [D]finally got a flashing light
They put it in last year
And everybody got real happy
When the grocery store got beer
And last [G]time the census
men came a- knockin'
We were busting at the seams

[Verse 3]
Aww, but [G]don't you forget it,
as big as we're getting
This town's too [D]small to [G]be mean

[Verse 4]
[D]Big enough for a ZIP code
A VFW
A good Mexican restaurant
A beauty shop or two
Got a [G]Methodist, a Baptist
And a Church of the Nazarene

[Verse 5]
Aww, but [G]don't you forget it,
as big as we're getting
This town's too small to be mean
Yeah, it's [D]too dang small to be [G]mean

[Verse 6]
[C]Too small to be lying
Way too small to cheat
Way too small for secrets
'Cause they're [D]way too
hard to keep
[G]And somebody's mama
knows somebody's cousin
And somebody's sister knows
somebody's husband
And somebody's daughter
knows somebody's brother
And around here,
we all [C]look out for each [D]other
[G]

[Verse 7]
You'll [D]end up in the paper
Wreck your family name
What goes around comes back around
By Friday's football game
We [G]only got one sheriff
But we all know how to keep the peace

[Verse 8]
Aww, and [G]don't you forget it,
as big as we're getting
This town's too small to be mean

[Verse 9]
[C]Too small to be lying
Way too small to cheat
Way too small for secrets
'Cause they're [D]way too
hard to keep
[G]And somebody's mama
knows somebody's cousin
And somebody's sister knows
somebody's husband
And somebody's daughter
knows somebody's brother
And around here,
we all [C]look out for each other

[Interlude 1]
[C][D]

[Verse 10]
Yeah, [G]some[D]body's mama
knows somebody's cousin
And somebody's sister knows
somebody's husband
And somebody's daughter
knows somebody's brother
And around here, we all look out for each other
