Key:
C Someday they'll find our small town world, On a big town avenue,
F Gonna make you like the way they talk, When they're talking to you,
C Gonna make you break out of your shell, Cuz they tell you to,
F Gonna make you like the way they lie, Better than the truth,
Am They'll tell you everything,
G You wanted someone else to say,
F They're gonna break your heart. [Chorus]
C From what I've seen,
G Dm You're just one more hand me down,
F But no one's tried to give you,
C What you need,
G Am Lay all your troubles down,
F I am with you now. [Verse 2]
C Somebody oughta take you in, Try to make you love again,
Continues after the ad
F Try to make you like the way they feel, When they're under you skin.
C Never once to you think that they would lie, When they're holding you,
F You wonder why they havn't called, When they said they'd call you,
Am You start to wonder,
G If you're ever gonna make it by,
F You'll start to think, You were born blind. [Chorus]
C From what I've seen,
G Dm You're just one more hand me down,
F But no one's tried to give you,
C What you need,
G Am Lay all your troubles down,
F I am with you now. [Bridge]
Am I'm here for the hard times,
E The straight to your heart times,
C When living ain't easy
D You can stand up against me,
F And maybe rely on me and
G F Cry on me, yeah [Solo]
C G F [Verse 3]
C Someday the'll open up your world,
F Shake it down to the very core,
Am Do their best to change you,
F They still can't erase you. [Chorus]
C From what I've seen,
G Dm You're just one more hand me down,
F But no one's tried to give you,
C What you need,
G Am Lay all your troubles down,
F I am with you now.
