INTRO (2x): G  D  C  G  D  C 

         D                             C 
Well, my daddy didn’t pull out, but he never apologized  
G                    D                      C 
Rock and roll means well, but it can’t help tellin’ young boys lies.  
  D                                        C 
A baby on the way’s a good enough reason to get you out alive  
G                   D                 C 
Get you out without having to swallow any pride.  


(2x): G  D  C  G  D  C 

       D                              C 
All my friends are restless, all they do is talk it down, 
G                   D                     C 
two or eight lanes, it don’t matter, it’s just another town. 
        D                                        C 
There’s a fool on every corner, on every street, in every one 
    G                       D                             C  
and I’d rather be your fool nowhere than go somewhere and be no one's  


Chorus: 

         Em        D               C 
So marry me, sweet thing won’t you marry me  
     G             D                   C 
Your Mama thinks I beat anything she’s ever seen  
G                D                         C 
This old town’s alright with me, there’s nowhere I’d rather be.  
        G                D                 C 
Long as they stay mad at one another, they can’t get mad at me  


(2x): G  D  C  G  D  C 

      D                           C 
Every time I leave here something bad happens to me 
G                     D                C 
Like a busted hand or finding some man laying where I sleep 
          D                                      C 
She don’t mean nothing to me, that’s just how it goes round here 
     G               D                           C  
It’s a cartoon town, I play my part, and I ain’t spoke her name in years  


Chorus: 

         Em        D               C 
So marry me, sweet thing won’t you marry me  
     G             D                   C 
Your Mama thinks I beat anything she’s ever seen  
G                D                         C 
This old town’s alright with me, there’s nowhere I’d rather be.  
        G                D                 C 
Long as they stay mad at one another, they can’t get mad at me  


BREAK: Am  Em  G  C  C/B 


Bridge: 

Am                              Em 
I don’t want anything I done to be nobody’s fault  
G                               C                         C/B 
Even if they got more money and mouth than they got balls.  
Am                                     Em 
That’s just how it went down, right or wrong, it’s just that way.  
G                                     D 
Just cause I don’t run my mouth don’t mean I got nothing to say 


Solo: Em  D  C  G  D  C  G  D  C  G  D  C 


Chorus: 

         Em        D               C 
So marry me, sweet thing won’t you marry me  
     G             D                   C 
Your Mama thinks I beat anything she’s ever seen  
G                D                         C 
This old town’s alright with me, there’s nowhere I’d rather be.  
        G                D                 C 
Long as they stay mad at one another, they can’t get mad at me 


      Em        D                C 
Marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me 
      Em        D                C 
Marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me
