Doug Supernaw - Shut'er Down guitar chord

Shut 'er Down

Deep Thoughts From a Shallow Mind

Doug Supernaw

Capo 2

Intro:

D G Em A D

Verse One:

D G

Parkview used to be just on the outside of town

D A

Now it's right in the middle of a city that's grown all around it

D G

And the old folks there just sit and stare at the walls

D A D

Except for one crazy old man standing there preaching in the halls

Verse Two:

D G

His old friend died last week so they let him go

D A

And his eyes teared up when nobody pulled to the shoulder

D G

And some punks drove by and yelled as they stood at the casket

D A D

And he cussed this world that had gone to hell in a basket

Chorus:

D G

So he walked downtown with his cane pole looking through the window

G

of what used to be the drugstore

A G

Next to the cafe where he laughed away his life

D

He heads on down to the fishing hole and dreams about his hero

G Em

Who took him there when he was three years old

A

Same spot everyday but don't need no bait 'cause it's dry

G A

Yes it's true that he's not quite all there but who cares

F#m Bm

Neither are the values that he's lived by for 90 years

G A D

And just like his hometown, he's about to shut 'er down

Verse Three:

D G

My views used to be just like those kids in that car

D A

Until I woke up one day thanks to a switch in the yard

D G

Now the old man's gone, but his thoughts are living in me

D A D

About the way this damned old world is supposed to be

Chorus:

D G

So I walk downtown with his cane pole looking through the window

G

of what used to be the drugstore

A G

Next to the cafe where he laughed away his life

D

I head on down to the fishing hole and dream about my hero

G Em

Who took me there when I was three years old

A

Same spot everyday but don't need no bait 'cause it's dry

G A

Yes it's true that I'm not quite all there but who cares

F#m Bm

Neither are the values that he taught me in 30 years

G A D

And just like his hometown, he just had to shut 'er down

G A D

And just like his hometown, he just finally shut 'er down
