This Town

INTRO: G  C  (4x)  G

               C
This town is a lot like me
G                        C
Sadder and wiser than it used to be
  G                      C
A little sprawled out, a little rundown
  G                     C             G
I wonder what's gonna become of this town


                  C
This town has its highs and lows
      G                        C
And a hole in the middle where nobody goes
G                              C
People come through, but they don't hang around
  G                        C              G
Nobody wants to get to the heart of this town


                      C
But this town has its own sweet charms
G                         C
Open your heart and it'll open its arms
G                        C
Take you by the hand and show you around
        G                       C         G
There's still a lot of life left in this town


CHORUS:
Em             C             G                 D
All that I can see is lovers kissing in the street
Em             C               D
Swaying to the beat of a rusty radio
Em                 C               G                  D
And all that I can hear is another late night symphony
    Em               C              D
The sound of traffic moving like an undertow


INSTRUMENTAL: G  C  (3x)  G


                C      G
This town can't get no rest
                      C
Everybody thinks that they know best
               G                         C
They're either building it up or they're tearing it down
     G                             C         G
They can't seem to love it like it is, this town


CHORUS:
Em            C            G                     D
All I wanna do_ tonight is kiss you in the street
Em             C               D
Swaying to the beat of a rusty radio
    Em            C              G              D
And all I wanna do_ is feel your arms around me too
Em            C            D           G
Pulling on my body like an undertow


               C
This town is a lot like me
  G                             C
A little coat of paint and some TLC
           G                 C
And she'll light right up if you come around
    G                         C           G     C   G
You know that you never wanna leave this town
                              C           G     C
You know that you never wanna leave this town
