[D] This is Dolores Keane, the [Eb] great Irish [Ebm]
[E] singer.
[D] [A]
[E] She's a singer.
[G]
Apparently when they went [D] into the studio to record this,
Dolores wouldn't feel that very well.
She is a very mature.
[Ab] [Gm] [Ab]
But apparently the Irish cure for whatever was ailing her
is the copious amounts of Irish whiskey in the cork.
[Eb] And I [Ab] told you as well, I'm to the [Eb] cure when they recorded this.
[Ab] Why they did it as a duet, I'll never know, but I'm very happy they did.
[E]
In a town where there's silence, there ain't no place to hide.
Everywhere you go, you meet [B] someone you know.
You [E] can't steal a kiss in a place like this.
How do rumors do fly in a [B] town this [E] size?
In a smoky bar, in a [A]
backseat of your [E] car,
in [E] your own little house, [B] someone's sure to find out
what [E] you do and what you think, what you [A]
eat and what you [Am] drink.
If you smoke a cigarette, they'll be [B]
talking about your breath.
[E] In a town this size, there [A] ain't no place to hide.
[E] Everywhere you go, [B] you meet someone you know.
You [E] can't steal a kiss in a [A] place like this.
How do rumors do fly in [B] a town [E] this size?

Before the moon went down.
It [B] was all over town.
[E] How I made her cry.
How [A] she said goodbye.
[E] If it's true or not, it doesn't [B] seem to count a lot.
In a [E]

Everywhere you go, you [B] meet someone you know.
You [E] can't steal a kiss in a place [A] like this.
