D D/C#
I grew up in a tiny town
Bm F#m
Sidewalks rolled up when the sun went down
G A
And we played in the streets ?til my mom said ?Come eat?
D A
In that tiny town
D D/C#
Dad ran a station by the railroad track
Bm Em
Half his life spent on his back
G A
Underneath the car Lord he worked so hard
D
In that tiny town
Bm G
They say home is where your heart is
D
And I guess it's true
Bm G
And they say you can't go back
Em A
But I close my eyes and I'm drivin' through
My mom sold Avon in the neighborhood
I'd wait in the car, hopin' she'd done good
So I'd have enough to spend
On the ice cream man
In that tiny town
I got the car when I was just 15
Five dollars bought a lot of gasoline
To the drive-in picture show
We used to go in that tiny town
Chorus
Now the years they fly by so fast
So much in life we lose to the past
But I'm proud to say
That I was raised
In a tiny town
Yeah I'm proud to say
That I was raised
In a tiny town
