Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Key: G Difficulty: Novice These aren't the exact chords Trixie uses (in the performance I watched to get the chords it's hard to tell whether the capo is on 2 or 3) but they're easy to play and sound alright. Intro: G C G Am D C G Verse 1: G C G Little boy's supposed to do what he's told G C G Little girl's supposed to polish her toes F C G Maybe they're together when they're older and they're all grown up G C G Daddy's supposed to put bread on the table G C G Daddy's gone and your mama ain't able F C G Are you hungry when the money's all run out?
Chorus: D7 Tell me little dear if you only lived here C G Did you really ever live at all D7 Cause you'd be amazed in the summer of a daze C G And the spring turn into fall Am Just listen to your brother Em G Em You can run in the cover of the night sky when it falls C D I know that you think you're growing G But you're just tall Post-Chorus: G C G Am D C G G C G Am D C G Ooh-ooh-ooh Verse 2: G C G A really pretty girl in a really small town G C G Easy to believe you that you never settle down F C G Mama told your mama just the same not long ago G C G You want a baby, the same as your friends G C G Ring off on your finger, and your story will end F C G You'll be lookin' 'round, wonder where did the time go? Chorus: D7 Tell me little dear if you only lived here C G Did you really ever live at all D7 Cause you'd be amazed in the summer of a daze C G And the spring turn into fall Am Just listen to your brother Em G Em You can run in the cover of the night sky when it falls C D I know that you think you're growing G But you're just tall Post-Chorus: G C G Am D C G G C G Am D C G Ooh-ooh-ooh Bridge: Am D Woah-oh Am Em D Don't you think I'd know Am Em D There never was a red light in our town Am D Woah-oh Am F C I hate to say I told you so Am G But you got to go right now Chorus: D7 Tell me little dear if you only lived here C G Did you really ever live at all D7 Cause you'd be amazed in the summer of a daze C G And the spring turn into fall Am Just listen to your brother Em G Em You can run in the cover of the night sky when it falls C D I know that you think you're growing G But you're just tall Post-Chorus: G C G Am D C G G C G Am D C G Ooh-ooh-ooh G C G Am D C G Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh G C G Am D C G Ooh-ooh-ooh G Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
