This Town Gets Around Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]In this town everybody's trying
to [G]get a piece of [D]everybody else
It gets hard to tell a real
[G]friend from [A]a fake one
[D]So many promises, favors, and lies
[G]Most of the town wears a [D]good disguise
And even I, [A]too,
have been known to [D]wear [G]one

[Verse 2]
As the [D]saying goes, it's not who you know
But it's [G]who you blow that'll
[D]get you in the show
And if that's not the case
I [G]hear [D]you [A]pay 'em
But I [D]don't come easy and I'm flat broke
So I [G]guess it's [D]me who gets the joke
Maybe I'd be [A]smarter if I [D]played dumb
[G]

[Verse 3]
I can't count all the times I've been [D]had
Now I know [Bm]much [D]better than
to [E]let that make me [A]mad[G]
I don't [D]let [G]non[D]e of
that get me [Bm]down
From what [D]I've found this
[A]town gets [D]around

[Verse 4]
Now the [D]very first manager I ever had
He was [G]old [D]enough he could
have been my dad
He took me out for drinks
and [G]talked [A]a big talk
He said, [D]"darling [A]sign [D]on the dotted [A]line
[G]You know, "kiss my [D]cheek
and drink this wine
But if you [A]walk on me,
then you can [D]just walk
[G]

[Verse 5]
I can't count all the times I've been [D]had
Now I know [Bm]much [D]better than
to [E]let that make me [A]mad[G]
I don't [D]let [G]non[D]e of
that get me [Bm]down
From [D]what I've found [A]this town gets [D]around
[Bm][G]

[Verse 6]
When I [D]first came here the streets
were paved with gold
And you can [G]walk that road,
I've been [D]told
But I won't put out or be controlled
I don't [G]write the shit that
gets bought and sold
[A]Ask any man
He might know
Who used to live [A]on Music Row
But that was then, and this is now
He told me this town gets [D]around
From what I've found this [A]town gets [D]around
