G* = only difference between this and regular G is to hit the
open D string rather than the 3rd fret E. You'll hear it in the song.

GDisappear from your Gm7hometown

Verse 2:
GI once heard theGm7 worse thing
G6 G* C Cm7 Cadd9 C
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
TellG everyone his Gm7name, pride, and G6confidence
G* C Cm7 Cadd9 C
But leaving out his doubt
GI'm not sure IGm7 bought those words
G6 G* C Cm7 Cadd9 C
When I was young I knew most everything
These Gwords have never Gm7meant as much to aG6nyone
G* C Cm7 Cadd9 C
As they now mean to me
Chorus:
The Gweight of lies will Ambring you down
And Cfollow you to Devery town
Cause Gnothing happens Amhere that doesn't Dhappen there
So Gwhen you run make Amsure you run
To Csomething and not Daway from
Cause Glies don't need an Amaeroplane to cDhase you down
