Intro:    Cadd9   C   Fadd9   F   x 
2


          Cadd9                    
Well they finally put that red 
            Fadd9
light up in the heart of town
         Cadd9                     
Took the stop sign down, it was 
     Fadd9
shot up anyhow
    Cadd9                          
One night I ran right through it in
    Fadd9
 my Chevrolet
       Cadd9                 
Both police cars came, but I got 
Fadd9
away


Chorus:
           G                    
  It was a boom town back in'62, 
         F
'til the coal ran out
  And a drought came through, and 
     C
they dammed the river
                      G
  That we all used to fish
                       F
  Population 405 and I made it 404 
one night

               C              
  And left the city limit sign 
               G
layin' in the ditch
            F               
  Run plumb over it, leavin' 
     Cadd9   C   Fadd9   F
Metropolis


        Cadd9                
Well, I found myself in a big 
                  Fadd9
high-rise with a concrete yard
              Cadd9                
It ain't safe after dark, guess 
          Fadd9
this ol' boy drove too far
      Cadd9                  
Met a girl, fell in love, got 
                   Fadd9
married and she's due in May
                 Cadd9             
Says we're gonna need more space, I
             Fadd9
 said I know just the place


              F
 Where we can  walk down to the 
country store
        C
 And we won't even have to lock our 
door
        F                 F/E 
 We can still get air and water 
            Dm7
there for free
                      Gsus4      G
 She said that sounds good to me


Chorus:
           G                    
  It was a boomtown back in '62, 
          F
'til the coal ran out
  And a drought came through, and 
     C
they dammed the river
                      G
  That we all used to fish
                           F
  Population 404 and when we pull in
 it'll be 3 more
                C              
  And there's a city limit sign 
               G
layin' in the ditch
         F                   
  That I need to fix, back in 
    Cadd9   C   Fadd9   F
Metropolis
                    Cadd9   C   
  I'm almost in Metropolis
Fadd9   F

                      Cadd9   C
  And I'm back in Metropolis
