G



D

Hugged your friends

            G

Kissed your mamma goodbye

D                       G

Baby in your arms and a tear in your eye

D              D/C#          Bm          G

Twelve hundred miles and you never asked why

     A

>From me

D                   G

Me and the baby and you side by side

D                           G

We all knew we was in for a long hard ride

D          D/C#    Bm         G        A

Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide it seemed

Em                         G

We honked the horn when we crossed the 

      A

State line

Em                        G          A

Woke up the baby and  she started to cry

Em

She must've known

     G       A          D

What we were going to find

D                        G    D      A

This ain't nothin' but a Heartbreak Town

D                 G      D       A 

Square people in a world that's round

         Bm

And they watch you dancin'

    C       C/B

Without the sound

G                   A

It ain't nothin' no nothin' 

D                            G     D    A              

You take your number and you stand in line

D                         G           G/F#

And they watch to see how high you're gonna climb

Bm                          C         C/B

Pat on the back 'n ' better luck next time

G                            A                       G

It ain't nothin' no it ain't nothin but a Heartbreak Town

D                     G

Stardust well it's a funny thing

D

It can make you cuss

       G

It can make you sing

D               D/C#          Bm       G           A      

And the need to touch it gets hard to explain some days

D

I've seen 'em rise

     G

I've seen 'em fall 

D

Some get nothin'

    G

And Lord some get it all

D         D/C#

Some just run

      Bm     G     A

While others crawl away

Em                G         A

Hold my hand baby don't let go

              Em     

I've got some front money

         G          A

And I've got a next show

Em

And I'm gonna need you

          G      A      D

Down this yellow brick road

D                        G    D      A

This ain't nothin' but a Heartbreak Town

D                 G      D       A 

Square people in a world that's round

         Bm

And they watch you dancin'

    C       C/B

Without the sound

G                   A

It ain't nothin' no nothin' 

D                            G     D    A              

You take your number and you stand in line

D                         G           G/F#

And they watch to see how high you're gonna climb

Bm                          C         C/B 

Pat on the back 'n ' better luck next time

G                            A                       G

It ain't nothin' no it ain't nothin but a Heartbreak Town
