Lyrics

(F)Small town (C)girls live life sweet ly,

they don’t waste (F)time dream ing of (C)op por tu ni ty.

(F)Small town (C)girls learn quick ly,

they live for (F)who they are, not (C)who they wan na be.

Up (Bb)on the green est grass they laugh and (F)grow,

the (Bb)man who the boun d’ries no one (Dm)knows.

(F)Small town (C)girls they (Dm)make the whole world turn, don’t (Bb)get their fin gers burned quite as eas y as the rest, oh oh.

(F)Small town (C)girls they (Dm)make my heart col lapse, such a shame the Bi ble nev er said that.

The foun da tions of the world,

they are (Gm)built on (Csus4)small (C)town girls.

Small town girls stop at noth ing,

they take no pris ’ners, nev er try small talk ing.

And what they have is quite u nique.

Their hearts are big e nough to wear on their sleeves.

(Bb)on the green est grass they laugh and (F)grow,

the (Bb)man who the boun d’ries no one (Dm)knows.

(F)Small town (C)girls they (Dm)make the whole world turn, don’t (Bb)get their fin gers burned quite as eas y as the rest, oh oh.

(F)Small town (C)girls they (Dm)make my heart col lapse, such a shame the Bi ble nev er said that.

The foun da tions of the world,

they are (Gm)built on (Csus4)small (C)town girls.

(Dm)Ev ’ry bod y knows they’re (Dm)quite a (G7)chase,

when (Dm)ev ’ry bod y looks they (Dm)hide their (G7)face.

(F)Small town (C)girls are in (Dm)no cent

with (Bb)ro sy cheeks and (F)grass y knees their (C)life is heav en sent.

(Bb)Most girls ry young and have some (F)kids

but (Bb)who am I to tell them what they’ve (Dm)missed.

About “Small Town Girls

Why does the accompaniment for "Small Town Girls" show falling notes?
Falling Notes makes each chord visual — colored notes drop onto the keyboard so you can FEEL the rhythm of the backing before each entry. Singers find it easier to lock in with the piano's groove when they see the chord notes land instead of just hearing them.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Small Town Girls" by Gary Barlow in?
The backing track is in Bb at 90 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.

Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.

Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
