Capo 4th Fret (To Match Recording)

Intro: (Cadd9) (C) (Fadd9) (F) x 2

Well they (Cadd9) finally put that red light up in the (Fadd9) heart of town

Took the (Cadd9) stop sign down, it was shot up (Fadd9) anyhow

One (Cadd9) night I ran right through it in my (Fadd9) Chevrolet

Both po(Cadd9)lice cars came, but I (Fadd9) got away

It was a (G) boomtown back in'62, 'til the (F) coal ran out

And a drought came through, and they (C) dammed the river

That we all used to (G) fish

Population 405 and I (F) made it 404 one night

And left the (C) city limit sign layin' in the (G) ditch

Run plumb (F) over it, leavin' Metr(Cadd9)opolis (C) (Fadd9) (F)

Well, I (Cadd9) found myself in a big high-rise with a (Fadd9) concrete yard

It ain't safe (Cadd9) after dark, guess this ol' boy (Fadd9) drove too far

Met a (Cadd9) girl, fell in love, got married and she's (Fadd9) due in May

Says we're gonna (Cadd9) need more space, I said I know (Fadd9) just the place

Where we can (F) walk down to the country store

And we (C) won't even have to lock our door

We can (F) still get air and (F/E) water there for (Dm7) free

She said that sounds (Gsus4) good to me (G)

It was a (G) boomtown back in '62, 'til the (F) coal ran out

And a drought came through, and they (C) dammed the river

That we all used to (G) fish

Poupulation 404 and when (F) we pull in it'll be 3 more

And there's a (C) city limit sign layin' in the (G) ditch

That I (F) need to fix, back in Met(Cadd9)ropolis (C) (Fadd9) (F)

I'm almost in Metr(Cadd9)opolis (C) (Fadd9) (F)

And I'm back in Metr(Cadd9)opolis (C)
