Lyrics

She’s been a fraid to go out.

She’s a fraid of the knock on her door.

There’s al ways a shade of a doubt.

She can nev er be sure

who comes to (A)call.

May be the friend of a friend of a friend, an y one at all,

(Em9)an y thing but noth ing a gain.

It (Dmaj9)used to be her town,

it (Gmaj7)used to be her town, too.

It (Bm7)used to be her town,

it (Em7)used to be her town, too.

Seems like (A)e ven her old (F#m7)girl (A)friends

might be talk ing her (A)down.

She’s got her (Em9)name on the grape vine,

(A)run nin’ (Em9)up and down the tel e phone (A)line.

Talk in’ ’bout (Em9)some one said, some one said (A)some thin’ ’bout (F#m7)some thin’ (A)else (Em9)some one might have said a bout her.

She al ways fig ured that they were her friends.

But (Em9)may be they can live with out her.

It (Dmaj9)used to be her town,

it (Gmaj7)used to be her town, too.

It (Bm7)used to be her town,

it (Em7)used to be her town, too.

Well, peo ple got used to see ing them both to geth er.

But now he’s gone and life goes on.

(G)Noth ing lasts for ev (A)er.

She gets the house and the gar den.

He gets the boys in the band,

(Em9)some of them his friends, (A)some of them (F#m7)her (A)friends, (Em9)some of them un der stand.

Lord knows that this is just a (A)small town (F#m7)cit y.

(A)Yes, and (Em9)ev ’ry one can see you fall.

It’s got noth ing to do with (F#m7)pit y.

I (A)just (Em9)want ed to give you a call.

It (Dmaj9)used to be your town.

It (Gmaj7)used to be my town, too.

(Bm7)You nev er know ’til it all falls down,

(Em7)some bod y loves you, (G)some bod y loves you.

Dar lin’, some bod y still loves you.

I can still re (F#m7)mem ber
