Can I get away with playing something new?
No?
Did somebody say no?
I'm going to do it anyway, but I appreciate your input.
[G#] I don't know.
This song is, I played it a couple of times, it's a new song.
We're making a new record in June, I think, and so we're going to have a new record sooner
than I thought we would.
[E] Probably very early next year.
I didn't [A]
know whether [E] people would get this song, because I think some of the same things
are, I played it a couple of times and audiences seemed to, but it's definitely aimed more
at my country.
But, [B] like I said, a lot of the same things happen here.
[E]
I was a kid, there were no limitations.
Said my goodbyes in the pre-ham station.
Here I am a half a [A] mile from where I grew up.
[E] Parking lot sitting in my pickup truck.
And I'm thinking about burning it down, boy.
Thinking about burning it down.
[A] Nothing's ever going to be the same in this [E] town.
Ten gallons of gas and a bottle of propane.
Electric igniter off my grill and [A] I still pee.
Say, all of a sudden this thing will blow.
[E] But if it does, I'm going to be the [B] first one to know.
And I'm thinking about burning it down, boys.
Thinking about burning it down.
[A] Nothing's ever going to be the same in this town.
And [E] I'm thinking about burning the Walmart down.
[A] [E]
I always used to [A] say I'd come back someday [F#] and settle down.
[E] Now [E] I'm getting old, got [A] no place else to go.
[E] It's all come around.
[B] So [E] I'm watching faces coming and going.
Some of them strangers and some that I knew.
[A] And it doesn't matter much how long it takes.
[E] The door's always open and it's never too late.
And I'm thinking about burning it down, boy.
Thinking about burning it down.
[A] Nothing's ever going to be the same in this town.
