[C#] [F#]
[C#] [F#]
[C#] I remember walking round [G#] the court square [F#] sidewalks, looking in winds at things I couldn't want.
[C#] There's Johnson's hardware [G#] and Morgan's jewelry, [F#] and the old Lee King's and Pop the
Carey, they [C#] were the little man, [F#]
[C#] the little man.
I go back [G#] now and the stores are empty, [F#] except an old Coke signed dated 1950.
[C#] Boarded up [G#] like they never existed, [F#] renovated and called historic districts.
[C#] There goes the little man, [F#]
there [C#] goes the little man.
[A#m] Now the court square's just [F#] a set of streets [C#] that people go around, [G#] but they seldom think
[A#m] about the little man [F#] that built this town.
[C#] Before the big [G#] money shut him down, he [C#] killed the little man, [F#]
[C#] oh the little man.
[F#]
[C#] He pumped your gas [G#] and he cleaned your glass, [F#] one cold rainy [F#] night he fixed your glass.
[C#] A new store came [G#] where you do it yourself, you [F#] buy a lotto ticket, food off the shelf,
but [C#] forget the little [C#] man, [F#]
forget about [C#] that little man.
He hung on [G#] there for a few more years, [F#] he couldn't sell slurpees, he wouldn't sell [B] beer.
[C#] Now the bank rents a station [G#] to a man down the road and [C#] they sell velvet [F#] Elvis, second hand clothes.
There [C#] goes the little man, [F#]
there goes another [C#] little man.
[D#] Now [A#m] the court square's just [F#] a set of streets [C#] that people go around, [G#] but they seldom think
[A#m] about the little [F#] man that built this town.
[C#] Before the big money [G#] shut him down, he [C#] killed the little man, [F#]
[C#] oh the little man.
[A#m] [F#]
[C#] [G#]
[A#m] [F#]
[C#] [G#]
[C#] [A#m]
Now the stores are lined up [G#] in a concrete strip, [F#] you can buy the whole world in just one trip.
[C#] You save a penny [G#] cause it's jumbo size, [F#] and they don't even realize they're killing [C#] the
little man, [F#]
[C#] oh the little man.
[A#m] Now the court square's just [F#] a set of streets [C#] that people go around, [G#] but they seldom think
[A#m] about the little man [F#] that built this town.
[C#] Before the big [G#] money shut him down, he [C#] killed the little man, [F#]
[C#] oh the little man.
[F#]
[C#] It wasn't long ago [G#] when I was a [F#] child, an old black man came with his mule [C#] and his plow.
He broke the ground [G#] where we grew our garden, [F#] back before we'd all forgotten about [C#] the little
man, [F#] [C#] the little man.
[F#] Long [C#] live the little man, [F#] God bless [C#] the little man.
[G#] [C#]
