Intro - D
D                                   D
If you're headin' down the highway, down about route ten
                                  D7
Get off on the last exit and take it around the bend
              G
You'll find a small town
                     D
But don't go hangin' around
     A7
'Cos hate lives in a small town
G                          D
 'Least that's what I have found
D                             D
The moms are in the kitchens, and they're baking pies
                                          D7
They smell so good, they're made to cover up the smell of lies
             G
They're in a small town
                        D
But pies don't cure all ills
    A7
And hate lives in a small town
G                           D
 That's why those moms take pills
        G
Well, I went to the big city
                         D
And everyone was wearing black
        G
If they saw that in my home town
A7                        D
  They wouldn't stand for that
      G
I saw kids all covered in tattoos
                        D
With Mohawks and purple hair
A7
But what really struck me
G                     D
 Was no one seemed to care
D                                 D
The Knights they beat the Badgers when they played down in a square
                                         D7
But they saved the biggest beating for a kid with longish hair
             G
They're in a small town
                    D
That kid was me one year
     A7
'Cos hate lives in a small town
G                    D
 More so if you seem queer
D                          D
The pastors in the pulpit, preachin' righteous lies
                                         D7
And the congregation, they don't know he slept with all their wives
                   G
They're in a small town
                        D
And it's clear clear to see
     A7
That hate lives in a small town
G              D
 As does adultery
        G
Well, I went to the big city
                     D
With my clothes in a pack
       G
When I got off at the station
A7                     D
  There was no turning back
      G
I met freaks and creeps and weirdos
                     D
Loose women and some geeks
                  A7
And they were the nicest gosh darn people
G                 D
 I'd ever hope to meet
         D
When you roll into a small town, they're nice as they can be
                                              D7
But at night they put on sheets and hang your sad ass from a tree
             G
They're in a small town
                    D
Don't dare be different
     A7
'Cos hate lives in a small town
G                        D
 Unless you're just like them
D
So if you're livin' in a small town and you feel you're in a vice
                                  D7
Buy yourself a ticket, kid, hell, just take my advice
              G
And leave the small town
                    D
Be quick as you can be
A7
Get out of that small town
G                        D
 And you'll be free like me
