[Verse 1]
F Am7 Gm7 C Sky ain't been raining, and the crops ain't been growing Bb F Am7 It's a small town shame, all up and down main Gm7 C Mom and Pops are closing down F Am7 Out with the corn fields, along with the farms Eb Bb They put in a concrete place to park cars Gm7 C F Like the big cities do, and it's got this country boy singin' the blues
[Chorus]
Am7 Well I'm miles from Memphis but I feel like I'm walking on Beale Eb Bb And in Delta guitars cry just like my broken heart feels F Am7 Driving around in this town is draggin' me down Eb Bb This ain't the place that I knew Gm7 C F And it's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
[Verse 2]
Am7 Gm7 C Grandaddy told me "everything changes" F Am7 You wake up one day, all the gravel gets paved Gm7 C And the old drive-in gets drove out F Am7 I still hear the train, it just ain't as loud Eb Bb I guess all this hurry's been drownin' it out Gm7 C F Like the big cities do, and it's got this country boy singin' the blues
[Chorus]
Am7 Well I'm miles from Memphis but I feel like I'm walking on Beale Eb Bb And in Delta guitars cry just like my broken heart feels F Am7 Driving around in this town is draggin' me down Eb Bb This ain't the place that I knew Gm7 C Bb F And it's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
[Bridge]
Gm7 Maybe I'll take the dirt road C Turn on some "Blue Suede Shoes" Gm7 Bb Bbm The King on my radio might help me change my tune
[Chorus]
Am7 Well I'm miles from Memphis but I feel like I'm walking on Beale Cm7 Bb And in Delta guitars cry just like my broken heart feels F Am7 Driving around in this town is draggin' me down Eb Bb This ain't the place that I knew Gm7 C F And it's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
[Outro]
Gm7 C F Am7 Gm7 C F It's got this country boy, country boy singin' the blues
