Capo 3
[G]I was born in a small town, Momma was a [G/F#]farmers [Em]wife
We [C]knew everyone for [G]miles around, we lived here all our [D]lives
It [G]never even entered their minds I might not [G/F#]want to [Em]stay
[C]But I'm young, I [G]still got time, I got to get a[D]way
Chorus:
And there's [C]one stop [G]light blinking [C]on and [G]off
[C]Everyone [G]knows when the [C]neighbors [G]cough
They [C]roll up the [G]streets when the [C]sun [C/B]goes [D]down
I'm a [C]midnight [G]girl in a [D]sunset [Em]town
I'm a [C]midnight [G]girl in a [D]sunset [G]town
I've seen places on the TV where they stay up all night long
Around here it's early to bed and they rise before the dawn
They say the old ways are still the best, I cannot deny it
But I can't get no rest cause it's just too quiet
Chorus
Solo
Bridge:
[G]Now I lay me [D]down to [G]sleep
I [G]pray the Lord my [C]soul to [G]keep
[G]If I should die before the [C]world turns [D]round
[C]Lord don't [G]leave me in this [C]one horse [G]town ([G]Lord don't [C]leave me in this [G]one horse [C]town)
[C]Lord don't [G]leave me in this [C]one horse [G]town ([G]Lord don't [C]leave me in this [G]one horse [C]town)
Chorus
