John Prine - The other side of town

^DWhy do you always seem to criti ^Acize me Seems like everything I do just turns out ^Dwrong Why don?t you come on out and des ^Gpise me So I could ^Apack my bag and baby I?d be ^Dgone

^DRemember when you used to call me ^Ahoney I?d turn around and call you honey ^Dtoo You might think it?s a joke, but it ain?t ^Gfunny To ^Ahurt someone who?s so in love with ^Dyou

^DA clown puts his makeup on ^Aupside down So he wears a smile even when he ^Dwears a frown You might think I?m here when you ^Gput me down But ^Aactually I?m on the other ^Dside of town.

^DMy body?s in this room with you just ^Acatchin? hell While my soul is drinking beer down the ^Droad a spell You might think I?m listening to your ^Ggrocery list But I?m ^Aleaning on the jukebox and I?m a ^Dbout halfway there

^DI?m sittin? on a chair just be ^Ahind my ear Playing dominoes and drinking some ^Dice cold beer When you get done talking I?ll come ^Gback downstairs And as ^Asume the body of the person you pre ^Dsume who cares

^DI?m A ^Across the river on the other ^Dside of town ^AIn my mind I?m on the other ^Dside of town
