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
