Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 1st

****Some of you will argue that the "G/B should be C/BC/B
     It's NOT Listen Closely...also if you want to
     substitute the "Cadd9" with the "C" you can"


G/BG/B = x20033


Intro - G+G - Am7Am7 - G/BG/B - Cadd9Cadd9 (or C majorC)


(1st Verse)
      G+G
Well, it's two miles East to West

   Am7Am7
Only four miles North to South

       G/BG/B
And when you pass the only red light

     Cadd9Cadd9
You will see the pastor's house

    G+G
People look you in the eye

     Am7Am7
And they smile at you and wave

      G/BG/B
Yeah, they always take the time

      Cadd9Cadd9
To stop and ask you, 'How's your day''

         Am7Am7     D MajorD
It's hard to say goodbye

          Am7Am7      D MajorD
'Cause baby, it's a good life



(2nd Verse)
    G+G
At the high school football game

     Am7Am7
Is where I got my first kiss

    G/BG/B
I still feel the butterflies

    Cadd9Cadd9
I still taste it on my lips

      G+G
And when we lost our Uncle Jake

    Am7Am7
Back in 1983

    G/BG/B
We heard Daddy upstairs weepin'

   Cadd9Cadd9
So we cried ourselves to sleep

         Am7Am7     D MajorD
It's hard to say goodbye

          Am7Am7      D MajorD
'Cause baby, it's a good life

(Chorus)
  G+G     Am7Am7      C majorC     D MajorD
Goodbye to mem'ries that I saved

  G+G     Am7Am7      C majorC     D MajorD
Goodbye to all the friends I made

  G+G     Am7Am7      C majorC     D MajorD   Am7Am7    D MajorD
Goodbye to all the home I'll ever kno----ow

 (NO  CHORD) G+G
Small town Jericho



(Bridge)
      E minorEm           C majorC
And every road here looks the same

      E minorEm         C majorC
This ol' town won't ever change

          C/BC/B     D MajorD
And that's what I love the most

       C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm  D MajorD  G<---walk down
And it's the rea-son I must go


(G+G - Am7Am7 - C majorC - D MajorD = 2x's)


(3rd Verse)
I put boxes on the porch
Daddy puts them in the car
Best to get the loadin' done
Won't be easy in the dark
'Cause I'm leavin' after midnight
And if anyone asks why
I wanna wait 'til Mama's sleepin'
'Cause I can't bear to see her cry
It's hard to say goodbye
'Cause baby, it's a good life


(Chorus)
  G+G     Am7Am7      C majorC     D MajorD
Goodbye to mem'ries that I saved

  G+G     Am7Am7      C majorC     D MajorD
Goodbye to all the friends I made

  G+G     Am7Am7      C majorC     D MajorD   Am7Am7    D MajorD
Goodbye to all the home I'll ever kno----ow

 C majorC      G+G - Am7Am7 - C majorC - D MajorD
Small town Jericho
   G+G - Am7Am7 - C majorC - D MajorD
Goodbye
  G+G - Am7Am7 - C majorC - D MajorD
