[Verse 1]
 G                                Em
I was born in a small town,mama was a farmers wife,
C                   G                 D
Weknew everyone for miles around, we lived there all our lives.
G                                          Em
It never even entered there minds I might not want to stay,
C                  G                     D
but I'm young I still got time I got to get away

[Chorus 1]
C               G              C      G
Theres one stop light blinking on and off'
C        G              C         G
Everyone knows when the neighbors cough,
C                G                         D
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down,
C              G         D      Em
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town,
C              G         D      G
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town.

G                                                        Em
I've seen places on the t.v. where they stay up all night long,
C                 G                                    D
Around here it's early to bed and they rise before the dawn.
G                                                     Em
They say the old ways are still the best I canot deny it,
C           G                                D
But i can't get no rest 'couse it's just too quiet.

[Chorus 2]
C               G               C      G
There's one stop light blinking on and off'
C        G              C         G
Everyone knows when the neighbors cough,
C                G                         D
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down
C              G          D      Em
I'm a midnight girl in  a sunset town,
C              G          D     G
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town.

[Bridge 1]
G            D       G
Now I lay me down to sleep,
                   C       G
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
                          C          D
If I should die befor the world turn round.
G           C               G         C
Lord don't leave me in this one horse town,
C          G                C         G
Lord don't leave me in this one horse town.
G          C                G         C
Lord don't leave me in this one horse town,
