In a town this size, [G] there's no place to hide.
[D] Everywhere you go, you [A] meet someone you know.
You [D] can't steal a kiss [G] in a place like this.
How the [D] rumors do fly [A] in a town [D] this size.
In a smoky bar, [G] in the backseat of your car,
[D] in your own little house,
[A] someone's sure to find you out.
What [D] you do and what you think, [G] what you eat and what you drink.
If you [D] smoke a cigarette, they'll [A] be talking [D] about [A] your breath.
In [D] a town this size, [G] there's no place to hide.
[D] Everywhere you go, you [A] meet someone you know.
You [D] can't steal a kiss in [G] a place like this.
How [D] the rumors do fly [A] in a town [D] this size.

Oh, I had a fight with [G] my girlfriend last night.
Before [D] the moon went down, it was [A] all over town.
[D] Oh, he made me cry.
[G] Oh, I said goodbye.
If [D] it's true or not, [A] doesn't seem to count a lot.
In [D] a town this size, [G] there's no place to hide.
[D] Everywhere you go, you [A] meet someone you know.
You [D] can't steal a kiss in [G] a place like this.
How [D] the rumors do fly in [A] a [D] town this size.
In [A] a town [D] this size.
[A] In a town [D] this size.
