Gretchen Peters - This Used To Be My Town


CAPO: 3rd Fret


INTRO: Fmaj7Fmaj7 C majorC Fmaj7Fmaj7 C majorC

N.C. Fmaj7Fmaj7            C majorC
The altar boys are sneaking cigarettes
  Fmaj7Fmaj7                  C majorC
The friends and neighbours offering their regrets
  Fmaj7Fmaj7             E minorEm   A minorAm
The station wagons in the pouring rain
  Fmaj7Fmaj7             G+G
And all that water going down the drain

N.C. Fmaj7Fmaj7                C majorC
A augmentedA  white lace dress for when I turn thirteen
   Fmaj7Fmaj7                   C majorC
And a bright red stain that wouldn't quite come clean
FF               E minorEm
Walking by the football field
       A minorAm
Trying out my sex appeal
   FF                Csus4Csus4  G+G
While all around the leaves are turning brown
   FF       C majorC    FF  C majorC
This used to be my town


N.C. Fmaj7Fmaj7               C majorC
He  waited by the swing-set in the park
  Fmaj7Fmaj7               C majorC
He tore at my new raincoat in the dark
  FF                E minorEm
And all that I could think about was
          A minorAm      FF
Getting through and getting out
                    Csus4Csus4  G+G
And how the night could fall without a sound
   FF       C majorC     FF  C majorC  FF  C majorC  FF  C majorC
This used to be my town


N.C. Fmaj7Fmaj7                 C majorC
I'm flying through the clouds as white as snow
  Fmaj7Fmaj7            C majorC
I'm looking at the people down below
  FF                  E minorEm
The whole world holds its breath for me
          A minorAm    FF
The priest evokes eternity
                 Csus4Csus4  G+G
And everywhere the rain is pouring down
   FF       C majorC
This used to be my town
   FF       C majorC
This used to be my town
