Intro

D  G  C

Em            G        C
You can try sneaking around if you like
         D         G          C
By the wharf, or away in the woods
Em            G            C
Poaching at lobsters, and deer and the like
        D      G             C
Doesn't that homebrew taste good?

        Am           G          C                 G
You can say you were hiking, pretend that you're lost
            Am           G            D
But you'll smell like a drunk in the end
         G                 C
It's a small town and the word will get round
G            D             G
That you can be sure, my friend

Em           G             C
You can grow plants in the bush, if you like
   D        G    C
Water them every day
Continues after the ad
Em           G            C
Pick a nice spot that is just out of sight
 D        G          C
Sunny but out of the way

Am            G             C             G
Then when the time comes to harvest your crop
     Am             G          D
Some kids cut them down in the end
        G                  C
It's a small town and the word will get round
G                        D                       G
That you can be sure, my friend

Em           G          C
You can try cheating on your lovely wife
        D        G    C
There's always a goer around
Em           G           C
Take her out back in the bush, if you like
   D          G         C
Do everything not to be found

 Am                G          C       G
Pants round your ankles, you fumble about
 Am            G             D
Wondering how this one will end
       G                   C
It's a small town and the word will get round
G            D            G
That you can be sure, my friend

Em         G          C
So I went running as fast as I could
 D             G          C
From the scene of all my crimes
Em           G               C
I imagined a life somewhere else far away
 D             G         C
Hoped I'd fall under the times

     Am          G           C             G
I'd claim I was orphaned and came from out west
    Am               G    D
And start fresh all over again
            G              C
But in my small town, the word will get round
G            D            G
That you can be sure, my friend
    G           D           G  G  C  G
Oh that you can be sure my friend
