[Bb]
In my hometown, population just a few thousand, all of them [Gm] kids at the drive-in [Eb] after Friday
night's football [Bb] game.
That's the same place my mom and dad went on their first date.
Had the same burger [Gm] I just ate.
[Eb] Man, some things [Bb] never change.
[F] That's what made me who I am today.
[Bb] Gave me a million songs to play [Gm] and when the radio's on, I just don't [C] understand.
[Eb] Because tractors ain't sexy and [Bb] working is hard [F] for small town people [Gm] like me.
And [Eb] the [Bb] radio's full of rich folks singing [F] about places they've [Gm] never seen.
[Cm] But I ain't saying [Bb] that their lives ain't hard, [F] I'd love to hear about it [C] sometime.
But I'm singing [Eb] about their own [F] lives and I'll sing [Bb] about mine.
I'm not complaining, running my mouth like an old man, talking about a [Gm] world that's changing,
[Eb] how it's giving up [Bb] on me.
I'm just saying, down at Nick's on the weekend, small town [Gm] Evans, they're singing,
[Eb] don't sound like what [Bb] you see when
[F] you talk about the Dairy Queen, [Bb] pickup trucks and spring
scene, [Gm] make the place I love sound like a bad [C] cartoon.
[Eb] Because tractors ain't [Bb] sexy and working is [F] hard for small town people [Gm] like me.
[Eb] And the radio's [Bb] full of rich folks singing [F] about places they've [Gm] never seen.
[Cm] But I ain't saying [Bb] that their lives ain't hard, [F] I'd love to hear about it [C] sometime.
But I'm singing [Eb] about their own [F] lives and I'll sing [Eb] about [Bb] mine.
[Gm]
If you want a song about [Cm] a place like my hometown, [Eb] take a weekend and come on down.
[F] It won't take long to see, [Eb] because tractors ain't sexy [Bb] and working is hard [F] for small town people [Gm] like me.
[Eb] The radio's [Bb] full of rich folks singing [F] about places they've [Gm] never seen.
[Cm] But I ain't saying [Bb] that their lives ain't hard, [F] I'd love to hear about it [C] sometime.
But I'm singing [Eb] about their own lives [F] and I'll sing [Bb] about mine.
They can sing [Eb] about their own [F] lives and I'll sing [Eb] about [Bb] mine.
