John Hiatt - Down around my place

^DmThe radio is busted, d^Cown around my ^Dmplace ^DmEvery tool is rusted, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmCreeks and rivers dried up, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmMy woman's tears are cried up, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace

And ^Cbefore there came a ^Cflood Some lost ^Dmall, even b^Dmlood Now the ^Csun and wind^C have come and left no ^Am2trace Down around my ^Dmplace ^CDown around my ^Dmplace

^DmThese hunting grounds were hallowed, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmExhausted fields lay fallow, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmKingdoms come and crumble, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmMy prayers are merely mumbles, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace

And I ^Cput my faith i^Cn you Did you ^Dmmake that error ^Dmtoo? Bound to ^Cfail that he mi^Cght show his ^Am2grace Down around my ^Dmplace ^CDown around my ^Dmplace

They said you w^F/Couldn't believe What a ^Cparadise this was 'Til every ^CAdam and Eve, Tom, Dick and Harry Started ^Dmfighting for what he ^Dmloved

So, we fort^F/Cified the ramparts And we ^Cbuilt the mighty towers But it was^C plain to see, we never were free From the ^Dmtyranny of the h^Dmour

^DmThe family graves keep winkin', ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmAt every thought I'm thinkin', ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmWhile the young ones crowd the table, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace ^DmBitchin' about no cable, ^Cdown around my ^Dmplace

^CAnd my grandpa says, “Don'^Ct worry It's always the ^Dmlast one in who's in a ^Dmhurry To ^Ctry and slam the ^Cdoor in the next one's ^Am2face” Down around my ^Dmplace ^CDown around my ^Dmplace ^CDown around my ^Dmplace ^CDown around my ^Dmplace ^CDown around my ^Dmplace
