Intro :

G   D   Cadd9 G      G     D     G



Verse :

G
That's the red brick house where I grew up

Cadd9
That's the football field that made me tough

G
The grocery store down on 4th

D
That would sell us beer for just a little more



G
Down a sandstone road there's an old rope swing

Cadd9
And a little lake where my buddies and me

G
Used to drive around and talk about

D
Growin' up and just hangin' out

Cadd9               D
To look at me you'd never guess



G
That I hate this town

D
I hate everyting in it

Cadd9
I swear I'm gettin out

D
Can't take another minute

G                D
It keeps bringin' me down

G
Its where I grew up

D
Figured I'd grow old

G
But then you left

D
How was I to know

G             D
Without you around

(Pause)    G
I'd hate this town


Verse :

We may have been young
But we had dreams
I built you a house
I bought you a ring
I hit my knees
Baby, please, I need you
Won't you marry me

Everybody we knew was there
The aisles were filled with folding chairs
The preacher prayed, the organ played
Your mama cried as we drove away
I bet none of them would believe

Chorus :

That I hate this town
I hate everyting in it
I swear I'm gettin out
Can't take another minute
It keeps bringin' me down
Its where I grew up
Figured I'd grow old
But then you left
How was I to know 
Without you around
I'd hate this town

Bridge :

Em     
I'd pack my bags about every night

C
Drive out past the city limit sign

G                    D
So no one would hear me say

Chorus :


That I hate this town
I hate everyting in it
I swear I'm gettin out
Can't take another minute
It keeps bringin' me down
Its where I grew up
Figured I'd grow old
But then you left
How was I to know
Without you around
Without you around
I'd hate this town
I hate this town
