This Town by Kacey Musgraves
This Town
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 1st fret
[Spoken Intro: "Memaw" Barbara Musgraves]
We had a girl that came in with a drug overdose the other day.
And she got real belligerent. And she bit one of the nurses.
(Oh man). And, I mean, she bit (Ohhh)—you could see every tooth
(Nooo! Hehe). It took two or three of us to get her off of her.
It's a crazy Wednesday
[Verse 1]
D
We finally got a flashing light
D
They put it in last year
D
And everybody got real happy
D
When the grocery store got beer
G
And last time the census men came a-knockin'
G
We were busting at the seams
[Refrain]
N.C.
Aww, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting
N.C. G
This town's too small to be mean
[Verse 2]
D
Big enough for a ZIP code
D
A VFW
D
A good Mexican restaurant
D
A beauty shop or two
G
Got a Methodist, a Baptist
G
And a Church of the Nazarene
[Refrain]
N.C.
Aww, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting
N.C. G
This town's too small to be mean
D G

[Chorus]
C
Too small to be lying
C
Way too small to cheat
C
Way too small for secrets
D
'Cause they're way too hard to keep
C
And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin
C
And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband
G C
And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother
G N.C.
And around here, we all look out for each other
[Interlude]
D G
[Verse 3]
D
You'll end up in the paper
D
Wreck your family name
D
What goes around comes back around
D
By Friday's football game
G
We only got one sheriff
G
But we all know how to keep the peace
[Refrain]
