    Hug your friends, kiss your mama goodbye
D                            G
    Baby in your arms, and a tear in your eye
D                 D/C#         G/B         G        A    
    Twelve hundred miles, and you never asked why from me
D                         G 
    Me and the baby and you side by side, we all

PD  CHORUS

Em                          G                A 
    Honk the horn when we crossed the state line
Em                             G           A
    Woke up the baby and she started to cry
Em                           G        A         D
    She must have known what we were going to find


CHORUS

D                           G             A 
    This ain't nothin' but a heartbreak town
D                     G           A
    Square people in world that's round, and they
Bm                       C                     G                       A
    Watch you dancin' without a sound, it ain't nothing, No it ain't nothing
D                              G           A 
    Take your number and you stand in line and they
D                    G             A
    Watch to see how high you're gonna climb
Bm                              C                     G    
    Pat on the back and better luck next time, it ain't nothin'
                 A                        G              G
