I'll Sing About Mine

	  		


      G                               C   G 
In my hometown, population just a few thousand  
                        Em             C                       G 
All of them kids at the drive-in after Friday night's football game 
           G                                          C     G 
That's the same place where mom and dad went on their first date 
                           Em             C                 G  
They had the same burger I just ate, man, some things never change 
D                                   G 
That's what made me who I am today, gave me a milion songs to play 
             Em                            A     Asus4 A 
And when the radio's on, I just don't understand 



        C                       G 
Because tractors ain't sexy and working is hard 
    D                      Em 
For small town people like me  
        C                    G  
And the radio is full of the rich folks  
              D                    Em 
Singing about places they've never seen 
    Am                           G 
And I ain't saying that they're lives ain't hard 
    D                         A7 
I'd love to hear about it sometime 
                              C         D 
But let them sing about their own life 
                    G 
And I'll sing about mine 


I'm not complaining, runnin' my mouth like an old man 
Talking about the world that's changing and how its given up on me 
I'm just saying down at Nicks on the weekend 
The small town anthems that they're singin', don't sound like the what you see 
When you talk about the Dairy Queen, pick up trucks and Springstein 
They make the place I love sound like a bad cartoon 

Chorus 


Bridge: 
 
Em     
If you want a song about 
Am 
A place like my hometown 
C 
Take a weekend and come on down  
   D 
It won't a long to see 


Chorus
