Small Town Chords by John Mellencamp

_ _ _ [D] _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
[F] I've got to run through this acoustic [F#m] version, or _ _ more acoustic [A] version, _ of Small [N] Town, capo
at the second fret.
And it's _ _ another one of those strumming songs that's more of a feel than a _ mechanical kind of _ strum.
But you'll see what I mean with it.
You can really kind of have fun with it and get into the punctuating things and _ [F#m] stabbing _ _
_ _ [C#] a [A#] chord and stuff.
But this is a good example of that.
_ [A] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [D] _

_ _ _ [F#] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] I've got to run through this little life, doing [E] it too. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [F#] Educated in a [D] small town.
_ [A] _ _ Talks [F#] fear of Jesus [D] in a small town.
_ [A] _ _ Used to [F#]
daydream [D] in that small town.
[Bm] Another boring romantic [E] and bleak. _ _
[A] But I've seen [F#] it all [D] in a small town.
[A] _ _ And [F#] myself, all in a small town.
_ _ [A] _ Well, [F#] now they don't [D] run to this small town.
[Bm] That small town.
Just [E] like me. _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] Oh, I cannot [A] forget the way that I [A] come from.
[D] _ Cannot forget [A] the people who really [E] love me.
But [D] I can meet myself here in this [A] small town.
[D]
And people let [A] me be just what I [E] want to be. _
Yeah, yeah, [F#m] yeah. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _

_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
Got nothing against [D] a big town.
_ _ [A] _
Still [Em] hazy enough to [D] say look who's in the big town. _
_ [A] _ [F#] But my bed's [D] in a small town.
_ [F#] Oh, and [F#] that's good enough for [E] me.
_ _ [F#] _ [A] _ But I was [E] born in [D] a small town.
_ [A] _ And I can breathe [D] in a small town.
_ _ [A] _
Gonna [F#] shout in [D] a small town.
Oh, [Bm] and that's probably where they'll bury [E] me.
_ _ [A] _ But I [F#] was born in a [D]
small town.
_ _ [A] _ And I [F#] live in a [D] small town.
_ _ [A] _ _ [F#]
Probably down in [D] a small town.
_ [Bm] Oh, that just ain't right for [E] me. _ _
Oh, yeah.
