This Used to Be My Town Gretchen Peters
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C
N.C. Fmaj7 C
The altar boys are sneaking cigarettes
The [Fmaj7]friends and neighbours offering their re[C]grets
The [Fmaj7]station wagons in the pouring [Em]rain[Am]
And [Fmaj7]all that water going down the [G]drain
N.C. Fmaj7 C
A white lace dress for when I turn thirteen
And a [Fmaj7]bright red stain that wouldn't quite come [C]clean
[F]Walking by the football field[Em]
Trying out my [Am]sex appeal
While [F]all around the leaves are turning[Csus4] brown[G]
This [F]used to be my [C]town[F] [C]
N.C. Fmaj7 C
He waited by the swing-set in the park
He [Fmaj7]tore at my new raincoat in the dark[C]
And [F]all that I could think about was[Em]
Getting through and[Am] getting out[F]
And how the night could fall without a [Csus4]sound[G]
This [F]used to be my [C]town[F] [C] [F] [C] [F] [C]
N.C. Fmaj7 C
I'm flying through the clouds as white as snow
I'm [Fmaj7]looking at the people down be[C]low
The [F]whole world holds its breath for me[Em]
The priest evokes e[Am]ternity[F]
And everywhere the rain is pouring[Csus4] down[G]
This [F]used to be my [C]town
This [F]used to be my [C]town
