(Repeat G D2 C9  throughout each line of the verse, except the last) 
Well I was born in a small town 
And I live in a small town 
Prob'ly die in a small town 
Oh, those small communities 
Am                 D2 
 
All my friends are so small town 
My parents live in the same small town 
My job is so small town 
Provides little opportunity 
 
Educated in a small town 
Taught the fear of Jesus in a small town 
Used to daydream in that small town 
Another boring romantic that's me 
 
But I've seen it all in a small town 
Had myself a ball in a small town 
Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town 
Now she's small town just like me 
 
  No I cannot forget where it is that I come from 
  G                           C9 
 
  I cannot forget the people who love me 
  G                              D2 
 
  Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town 
  G                               C9 
 
  And people let me be just what I want to be 
  G                                D2 
 
 
 INTRO/SOLO 
Got nothing against a big town          (After each line of verse ending with 
Still hayseed enough to say              'town,' guitarist plays: 
Look who's in the big town                  ----0----------- 
But my bed is in a small town               ------3--------- 
Oh, and that's good enough for me           --------0------- ) 
 
Well I was born in a small town 
And I can breathe in a small town 
Gonna die in this small town 
And that's prob'ly where they'll bury me
