G C G G C G
[Verse 1]
G
Mile back off the interstate
Em G
Minute past the stop and go
C
There's a place just off the map
G C G
Across the tracks that nobody knows
C G
Except the locals and lost
C G
And the crooked county cops
C G
Most don't make it past gettin gas
C G
And gettin back on the road, road
[Chorus]
C G
I love and hate this place
D Em
Some things never change
C G
The dinner bell, the bible and the belt
D
And the sweet sound
C D
Of the engine pistons gunnin'
G Em D
The distant highway hummin'
C G D
Like it did, when we said we'd make it out
G C G
Of this ole turn around town
[Verse 2]
C G
Used race the two lane
C G
From the exit to the end of the line
C
Slowing by the coffee shop
G C G
Where the cops hang out at night
C G
Oh I remember 18,
C G
Seemed like every other night
C
I made it to the edge of town,
G D
Turned around too many times
[Chorus]
C G
I love and hate this place
D Em
Some things never change
C G
The dinner bell, the bible and the belt
D
And the sweet sound
C D
Of the engine pistons gunnin'
G Em D
The distant highway hummin'
C G D
Like it did, when we said we'd make it out
G C G
Of this ole turn around town
[Solo]
| D | Em D | C | G | D
[Chorus]
C G
I love and hate this place
D Em
Some things never change
C G
The dinner bell, the bible and the belt
D
And the sweet sound
C D
Of the engine pistons gunnin'
G Em D
The distant highway hummin'
C G D
Like it did, when we said we'd make it out
G C G
Of this ole turn around town
Em C G
Of this ole turn around town
