Capo 3
In my [G]hometown, population just a few [C]thou[G]sand
All of them kids at the [Em]drive-in after [C]Friday night's football [G]game
That's the [G]same place where mom and dad went on their [C]first [G]date
They had the same burger I [Em]just ate, man, [C]some things never [G]change
[D]That's what made me who I am today, [G]gave me a milion songs to play
And when the [Em]radio's on, I just don't under[A]stand[Asus4][A]
Chorus:
Because [C]tractors ain't sexy and [G]working is hard
For [D]small town people like [Em]me
And the [C]radio is full of the [G]rich folks
Singing about [D]places they've never [Em]seen
And [Am]I ain't saying that they're [C/B]lives ain't hard
I'd [D]love to hear about it some[A7]time
But let them sing about their [C]own life[D]
And I'll sing about [G]mine
I'm not complaining, runnin' my mouth like an old man
Talking about the world that's changing and how its given up on me
I'm just saying down at Nicks on the weekend
The small town anthems that they're singin', don't sound like the what you see
When you talk about the Dairy Queen, pick up trucks and Springstein
They make the place I love sound like a bad cartoon
Chorus
Bridge:
[Em]If you want a song about
[Am]A place like my hometown
[C]Take a weekend and come on down
It [D]don't a long to see
Chorus
