Smaller And Smaller

[Verse 1]
F        C      F         C
Downtown diner, doors are locked
F   C       G          C
Old man got nowhere to talk
       Am          F          G
And complain about tomorrow’s rain
     F    C        F            
They tore down the little white 
C
church
  F   C         G          C
A big mall grew out of the dirt
          Am      F       G
The ( ? ) lawn, a parking lot
G7                          C
This town's getting smaller and 
            F C
smaller


[Chorus]
G                       F ~    C
It’s disappearing, it’s almost gone
   Am                       G
No front doors unlocked, no kitchen 
lights left on
                          F   
Some things last forever, some 
 ~      C
things don’t
Continues after the ad
     Am                          
It’s forming now, but take a look 
  G
around
G7                          C
This town's getting smaller and 
            F C
smaller


[Verse 2]
   F      C        F        C
No town parade, no baseball field
F     C         G               
River shoreline lined with brick
    C
 and steel
   Am      F       G
Neon signs killing stars
F        C      F         C
Traffic lights, fenced in yards
F         C                 G   
Next door neighbours, don’t know
         C
 who you are
             Am        F   G
It’s bigger, yeah, and I believe
G7                          C
This town's getting smaller and 
            F C
smaller


[Chorus]
G                       F ~    C
It’s disappearing, it’s almost gone
   Am                       G
No front doors unlocked, no kitchen 
lights left on
                             F   
Some things last forever and some 
 ~      C
things don’t
     Am                          
It’s forming now, but take a look 
  G
around
G7                          
This town's getting smaller and 
Am          F G
smaller


[Instrumental]
G   Am   F G   Am   F G   Am   F G


[Verse 3]
               C
Driving county roads, 2am
               G       C
Wish I could be a kid again
           Am         F       G
Before the world came closing in
This town's getting smaller and 
C        F C   F C   G C
smaller
