In a Town This Size Lyrics
by John Prine
In a town this size (Key of D)
John Prine & Delores Keane (Irish singer of all people - she sounded Cajun in this!)
The intro is kind of cool pickin. The chords and singing are a great wind down from a
of drinkin and smokin. I'm trying to figure it out, likely if I do I'll never get to
it. If ANYONE out there has it !PLEASE! post it and save me some trouble. I think it's
key of D cause his picking is in the D scale (minor) I believe.
Intro and solo revolves around open D chord with the D minor scale around it (unless I'm
in La la land here).
In a town this size there's no place to hide
Eveywhere you go you meet someone you know
You can't steal a kiss in a place like this
How the rumors do fly in a town this size
In a smokey bar in the back seat of your car
In your own little house someone is sure to find out
What you do and what you think
What you eat and what you drink
If you smoke cigarettes they'll be talking about your breath
In a town this size there's no place to hide
Eveywhere you go you meet someone you know
You can't steal a kiss in a place like this
How the rumors do fly in a town this size
Oh I had a fight with my girlfriend last night
Before the moon went down down it was all over town
How I made her cry how she said goodbye
If It's true or not doesn't seem to count a lot
In a town this size there's no place to hide
Eveywhere you go you meet someone you know
You can't steal a kiss in a place like this
How the rumors do fly in a town this size
