(Verse 1) 

           G
  This old town ain't been the same,


  since this old boy’s been gone.

         C
  Lord I still got some good friends,

                     G
  but I feel so all alone.

        D
  All I hear is disco,

                                  G
  see pretty boys with high heels on.



(Verse 2) 

            G
  Well some people sure hate me,

                        
  and the police dog me ‘round.

                             G
  and this is where I got my sound.

  Although I'm your outlaw,

  I still love my hometown, all around.
