What else [D] could he do?
[Em] She was the only girl his age, [C] she was the only girl he knew,
[G] And she married him, [D] and promised to be true, [Em] She did what was expected, [C] and her daddy told her to.
[D] [G] Well, what do you expect [E] in a one street town?
[C] Well, life never changes, [D] nothing ever [G] goes down,
[G] Well, you're in the corner [Em] of everyone's eyes, [C] And must let your life [D] pass by,
[Em] You let the days pass until [C] you die.
[G]
[D] So they set up home, [C] what else could they do?
[G] The only thing they knew, was the only proper thing,
[D] Was the only thing they knew, [Em] And the days went by, [C] and the happiness too,
[G] And they fell into the routine, [D] that their folks had slaved into.
[G] Well, what do you expect [Em] in a one street town?
[C] Well, life never changes, [D] nothing ever [G] goes down,
Well, you're in the corner [Em] of everyone's eyes, [C] And must let [G] your life [D] pass by,

[D] And so on until the day, [C] that stranger passed through,
[G] And she found in his arms, the love of life she never knew,
[Em] And the routine broke, [C] and somehow he broke too,
[G] The tears between his heart and [Bm] mine, is what the town helped him [C] do.
[D] [G] Well, what do you expect [Em] in a one street town?
[C] Well, life never changes, [D] nothing ever goes down,
[G] Well, you're in the corner [Em] of everyone's eyes, [C] And must let [G] your life [D] pass by,
[Em] You let the days pass until [Am] you [C] die.
[G]
[D] So he caught him and got him, [C] and though he loved him still,
[G] Life was over for both of them, [D] there was no way out but [Em] kill.
