My Little Town Chords & Tabs
My Little Town
Words & music by Paul Simon 1975
E |
In my little town
Em |Em7/A A |
I grew up believ--ing
D |Bm |Am | |
God keeps His eye on us all
F |C |
And He used to lean upon me
C+ |E7 |A |
As I pledged allegiance to the wall
Bm |E
Lord I recall
|A |
My little town
A/G# |F#m |
Coming home after school
Am6 |D9
Flying my bike past the gates
|G |E7 |F |
Of the factories
B |F |
My mom doing the laundry
F+ |A
Hanging our shirts
|D | |
In the dirty breeze
|G
And after it rains
|
There's a rainbow
| |D
And all of the colors are black
|Em |D
It's not that the colors aren't there

Back in my little town

Nothing but the dead and dying

Back in my little town

In my little town

Saving my money

Twitching like a finger

On the trigger of a gun

Leaving nothing but the dead and dying

Back in my little town

Nothing but the dead and dying

Back in my little town
