Small Town Kid

G    G/F#        Em              
Everyday someone asks me what’s 
  C         G        G/F#     C
my story and what do I like to do
G   G/F#              Em        
And everyday, for the most part,
        C     G             G/F# 
 I only go so far; I almost never
          C
 tell the truth
           G          G/F#  
‘Cause the truth is behind me 
          Em           C          
there’s not much, to give up, I 
     G       G/F#      C
like simple, not complicated

Chorus:
               G              
(‘Cause) I’m a small town kid, 
        G/F#                 
driven by rock music And some 
  Em                 C
honky-tonk, in the mix
       G                  G/F#    
I like whiskey in coke, a double 
                     Em            
to the top, a shot of cuervo now 
 C
and then

        G                         
I never ask for a lot, I’ll never 
G/F#              Em             
need much, just a good-looking 
           C               G
lady who can drive my truck
G        G/F#      C             
I’m not afraid to admit, I’m that

City lights, yellow cabs, Yankee 
hats, Suits and ties everywhere
These City folks, they look at me in
 my shirt and jeans, they make me 
think I don’t fit in here
Well the things they say might be 
right, they might be so but one 
thing I know: I can’t change who I 
am

Chorus


Bridge:
D                    C
Mama don’t you worry
D                    C
They won't change me
D                  C
A hundred thousand miles
     D
Mean nothing to me
