Capo 1

HUGGED YOUR FRIENDS, KISSED YOUR MAMA GOODBYE
BABY IN YOUR ARMS AND A TEAR IN YOUR EYE
TWELVE HUNDRED [G/F#]MILES AND YOU NEVER ASK WHYFROM ME

ME AND THE BABY AND YOU SIDE BY SIDE
WE ALL KNEW WE WAS IN FOR A LONG HARD RIDE
NOWHERE TO RUN AND NOWHERE TO HIDE IT SEEMED

WE HONKED THE HORN AND WHEN WE CROSSED THE STATE LINE
WOKE UP THE BABY AND SHE STARTED TO CRY
SHE MUST HAVE KNOWN WHAT WE WERE GOING TO FIND
THIS AINT NOTHING BUT A HEARTBREAK TOWN
SQUARE PEOPLE IN A WORLD THATS ROUND
AND THEY WATCH YOU DANCING WITHOUT THE S[F/E]OUND
IT AINT NOTHIN, NO NOTHIN, NO.NO
YOU TAKE YOUR NUMBER AND YOU STAND IN LINE
AND THEY WATCH TO SEE HOW HIGH YOURE G[C/B]ONNA CLIMB
PAT ON THE BACK N BETTER LUCK NEXT [F/E]TIME
IT AINT NOTHIN, NO IT AINT NOTHIN BUT A HEARTBREAK TOWN

STARDUST, WELL, ITS A FUNNY THING
IT CAN MAKE YOU CUSS, IT CAN MAKE YOU SING
AND THE NEED TO [G/F#]TOUCH IT GETS HARD TO EXPLAIN..SOME DAYS

IVE SEEN EM RISE, IVE SEEN EM FALL
SOME GET NOTHIN. LORD SOME GET IT ALL
SOME JUST RUN WHILE OTHERS CRAWL AWAY

HOLD MY HAND BABY DONT LET GO
IVE GOT SOME FRONT MONEY AND IVE GOT A NEXT SHOW
AND IM, IM GONNA NEED YOU DOWN THIS YEL-LOW BRICK ROAD

THIS AINT NOTHIN BUT A HEARTBREAK TOWN
SQUARE PEOPLE IN A WORLD THATS ROUND
AND THEY WATCH YOU DANCING WITHOUT THE [F/E]SOUND
IT AINT NOTHIN, OH NOTHIN, NOTHIN, NOTHIN AT ALL

YOU TAKE YOUR NUMBER AND YOU STAND IN LINE
AND THEY WATCH TO SEE HOW HIGH YOURE GONNA CLIMB
PAT ON THE BACK, BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME
IT AINT NOTHIN, OH IT AINT NOTHIN BUT A HEARTBREAK TOWN
