[Verse 1]

        Dm             F
In the tiny town where I come from
      C                      G
You grew up doing what your daddy done
         Dm                       F                C
And you don't ask questions, you do it just because

             Dm               F
You don't climb too high or dream too much
         C                     G 
With a whole lotta work and a little bit of luck you can
 Dm                  F                  C
Wind up right back where your daddy was


[Chorus]

                   Am                F
This little bitty town It aint nothin new
                C                             G       E7
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us to
               Am                      C
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
              G                                       F
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down
     F                 G                      Am
I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town
                      C
Yeah, this one horse town


[Verse 2]

        Dm                    F
I'm an old married man at the age of 23
     C                      G
Got two little boys on the baseball team
      Dm                  F             C
And that might be their only ticket out

 Dm                F
All they got is a worn out name
       C                          G
and a daddy that could have gone all the way
       Dm             F                    C
but I hung my saddle up and I settled down


[Chorus]

                   Am                F
This little bitty town It aint nothin new
                C                             G       E7
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us to
               Am                      C
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
              G                                       F
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down
     F                 G                      Am
I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town
                      C
Yeah, this one horse town


[Solo]

Dm   F   C   G   Dm   F   C


[Ending Chorus]

                   Am                F
This little bitty town Oh yeah, it aint nothin new
                C                             G       E7
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us to
               Am                      C
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
              G                                       F
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole thing down
     F                         G                        C
I'd saddle that one horse and ride it right out of this town
