One Horse Town

INTRO: (2x)
C  Am  C
 
       Dm              F
In the tiny town where I come from
    C                       G
You grew up doing what your daddy does
        Dm                      F            C
And you don't ask questions you do it just because
          Dm                F
You don't climb too high or dream too much
       C                       G
With a whole lot of work and a little bit of luck
        Dm                 F                C
You can wind up right back where your daddy was
 
C                  Am                   F
This little bitty town it ain't nothing new
              C                             G   E7
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us to
             Am                             C
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
            G                                        F
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down
                       G                     Am
I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town
                    C
Yeah this one horse town
 
       Dm                     F
I'm an old married man at the age of twenty three
    C                      G
Got two little boys on the baseball team
    Dm                  F            C
And that might be their only ticket out
Dm                F
All they got is a worn out name
      C                        G
And a daddy that could've gone all the way
      Dm             F                C
But I hang my saddle up and I settled down
 
C                  Am                   F
This little bitty town it ain't nothing new
              C                             G  E7
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us to
             Am                             C
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
            G                                        F
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down
                       G                     Am
I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town
                    C
Yeah this one horse town

I'd saddle that one horse and ride it right out of this town
