This is the chords of Small Town Hypocrite by Caylee Hammack on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
F
Hand-me-down dreams got me high in the
C
rafters
G
Homecoming queen couldn\’t be an
Am
outsider
F C
So there I\’d sit, with a cigarette lit,
G
in a leather jacket
F C
I found a boy who was a stranger too
G Am
In a one-horse town at a table for two
F
We had matching scars and matching
C
tattoos
G
Both dyin\’ to fit in
F C G
Ain\’t that some shit?
F C G
We\’re just small town hypocrites
[Verse 2]
F
And that scholarship was a ship that
C
sailed
G Am
When I chose you and daddy gave me hell
F C
I made myself into someone else just to
G
love you, damn, I loved you
F
Took all my plans and I put \’em in a
C
box
G Am
Phantom pains for the wings I lost
F C
Had me circling rings in the catalogs
G
For seven years, and you never got the hint
F C G
Ain\’t that some shit?
F C G
I\’m just a small town hypocrite
[Chorus]
F C
Swore we\’d be running, running, running
G
this town
F
But you\’re just running, running,
C G
running around
F C
And I\’m staring at a picket fence
G Am
Wonderin\’ where the hell time went
F
I should\’ve been running, running,
C G
running by now
F C G Am
But I just hang around
F C G Am
Oooooh
[Verse 3]
F C
Love shot me out like a rocket
G Am
Never to return, and man, I forgot it
F C
How it feels to fall from orbit and
G
land on shifting sands
F
I found my heart at the bottom of a
C
bookcase
G
You said you needed space, and damnit,
Am
I bought it
F
\’Til you moved in a vinyl-sided
C G
double-wide with a couple of her kids
F C G
Ain\’t that some shit?
F C G
You\’re just a small town hypocrite
[Chorus]
F C
Swore we\’d be running, running, running
G
this town
F
But you\’re still running, running,
C G
running around
F C
And I\’m staring at a picket fence
G Am
Wonderin\’ where the hell time went
F
I should\’ve been running, running,
C G
running by now
F C G
But I just hang around
F C G
[Outro]
F C
Oh, now I bitch about how things turned
G
and how they should\’ve been
F C
The bridges that I burned and the
G
trains I didn\’t catch
F C G
Like a small town hypocrite
F C G
Just a small town hypocrite
F C G
Like a small town hypocrite
F C G
Just a small town hypocrite
