       E                   A             E
In a small corner bar, he sits there a-drinkin'
 E         A                       E
Lost as a ball in a field full of corn
 E        A                 E
Further away than he ever imagined
          B7       A                         E
That he'd ever end up from the place he was born

And for everyone you meet, there's
a whole mess of people
Tryin' like hell to pull you on down
To the level they're on and the
trouble they're tendin'
In the mess that they've made,
in the gutter they found

Chorus:
                A                        E
He'd rather be dead than alive one more minute
        B7     A     E
In this godforsaken town
               A                           E
When he was a kid, Lord, he'd never have dreamt it
                       F#m
All the ways that the city can
         A           E
bring a country boy down

Now they knew not his name and
he knew not their faces
And he knew not the how nor the reason for why
You could ever wake up and wanna keep on a-livin'
In a place where a friend is such
a hard thing to find

And for everyone you meet,
there's a whole mess of people
Tryin' like hell to pull you on down
To the level they're on and
the trouble they're tendin'
In the mess that they've made,
in the gutter they found

Chorus

E                          A             E
Some fellas do pills and things of that nature
                   A                     E
Some fellas chase girls to hang on their arm
                 A                 E
Some fellas get by on practically nothin'
                 B7           A           E
Some fellas get pissed in a small corner bar

Chorus:
And they'd rather be dead
than alive one more minute
In this Godforsaken town
When they were all kids, Lord,
they'd never a'dreamt it
All the ways that the city can
bring a country boy down
