SMALL TOWN by Fred Eaglesmith (Capo 3)
DIt's a small town
AThe word sure gets Daround
When the Gwoman you love
Puts you in the lost and Dfound
And you lGook for her friends
They go undergDround
DIt's a small town
AThe word sure gets Daround
DAnd you go out to all those 
APlaces you used to Dgo
GAnd even your old car 
Is driving on sDlow
GAnd the sidewalks whisper
The street lights flicker all Dday
DIt's a small town
AThe word sure gets Daround
D A D   G D G D   D A D
DAnd there ain't enough 
AYears in this old Dworld
GTo cry out the loss and the love
Of a wayward Dgirl
GYou'd think after all of this time
You'd know it by Dnow
DIt's a small town
AThe word sure gets Daround
DIt's a small town
AThe word sure gets Daround

SMALL TOWN by Fred Eaglesmith (Capo 3)

It's a small town

A D

The word sure gets around

When the woman you love

Puts you in the lost and found

And you look for her friends

They go underground

It's a small town

A D

The word sure gets around

And you go out to all those

A D

Places you used to go

And even your old car

Is driving on slow

And the sidewalks whisper

The street lights flicker all day

It's a small town

A D

The word sure gets around

D A D G D G D D A D

And there ain't enough

A D

Years in this old world

To cry out the loss and the love

Of a wayward girl

You'd think after all of this time

You'd know it by now

It's a small town

A D

The word sure gets around

It's a small town

A D

The word sure gets around
