My Little Town By Meredtith Brooks
Intro DDGC Verse 1 D We lock the doors at night D All the sirens scream G I don't drive my car C Insurance is too high D I live here in the city D My hometown's far away G I workout with concrete C I don't drive my car D The stars come out at night D You see them on the strip G Everybody arms themselves C There's no other place like this D I'll never leave this D Small town girl behind G The place where I come from C Is with me all the time
ref. D Oh, you could walk the streets G When the sun goes down C In my little town D You don't need defenses G When the sun goes down C In my little town
Verse 2 D Back home on the street D After 10 at night G Mrs. Avery walks her dog C Checks to see what's going on D She doesn't lock the door D She lives here in good health G You don't hear the horn C When Mrs. Avery walks her dog D All I ever wanted D Was a view of city lights G Break away from here G Leave behind the quiet nights D Spend half your life D Trying to make a change G Then the other half C Trying to get back again
Ref. D Oh, you could walk the streets G When the sun goes down C In my little town D You don't need defenses G When the sun goes down C In my little town
Bridge. CG Look down the road D Look at the highway C Look past the fences G Look at the faces A What do you have on the other side?
SOLO
yeah yeah yeah, a bunch of times
Ref. D Oh, you could walk the streets G When the sun goes down C In my little town D You don't need defenses G When the sun goes down C In my little town
