[Verse 1]
G G F# Em
I was born in a small town, Momma was a farmers wife,
C G D
We knew everyone for miles around, We lived here all our lives . .
G G F# Em
It never even entered their minds, I might not want to stay,
C G D
But I'm young I still got time, I got to get away.
[Chorus 1]
C G C G C G C G
And there's one stop light blinking on and off, Everyone knows when the neighbors cough,
C G C D C G D Em
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down . . I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town . .
C G D G
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town.
[Verse 2]
G G F# Em
Seen places on the TV, Where they stay up all night long,
C G D
Around here it's early to bed and they rise before the dawn,
G G F# Em
They say the old ways are still the best, I cannot deny it,
C G D
But I can't get no rest, 'Cause it's just too quiet.
[Chorus 2]
C G C G C G C G
And there's one stop light blinking on and off, Everyone knows when the neighbors cough,
C G C D C G D Em
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down . . I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town . .
C G D G G
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town.

[Interlude]
G D G C G
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep,

If I should die before the world turns round,
C G C G G C G C
Lord don't leave me in this one horse town, (Lord don't leave me in this one horse town)
C G C G G C G C
Lord don't leave me in this one horse town, (Lord don't leave me in this one horse town)
[Chorus 3]
C G C G C G C G
Well there's one stop light blinking on and off, Everyone knows when the neighbors cough,
C G C D C G D Em
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down . . I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town . .

I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town.
[Outro]

And there's one stop light blinking on and off, Everyone knows when the neighbors cough,

They roll up the streets when the sun goes down . . I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town . .

I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town . . I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town.
