I hadn't yet seen chords for one of Voltaire's country songs so I tried to figure out the chords
to "Hate Lives in a Small Town", my favourite Voltaire country song. This is just how I play it.
It may not be 100% right for everyone but here is my way to play Hate Lives in a Small Town.
Thanks :)
Intro - D
D D If you're headin' down the highway, down about route ten D7 Get off on the last exit and take it around the bend G You'll find a small town D But don't go hangin' around A7 'Cos hate lives in a small town G D 'Least that's what I have found D D The moms are in the kitchens, and they're baking pies D7 They smell so good, they're made to cover up the smell of lies G They're in a small town D But pies don't cure all ills A7 And hate lives in a small town G D That's why those moms take pills G Well, I went to the big city D And everyone was wearing black G If they saw that in my home town A7 D They wouldn't stand for that G I saw kids all covered in tattoos D With Mohawks and purple hair A7 But what really struck me G D Was no one seemed to care D D The Knights they beat the Badgers when they played down in a square D7 But they saved the biggest beating for a kid with longish hair G They're in a small town D That kid was me one year A7 'Cos hate lives in a small town G D More so if you seem queer D D The pastors in the pulpit, preachin' righteous lies D7 And the congregation, they don't know he slept with all their wives G They're in a small town D And it's clear clear to see A7 That hate lives in a small town G D As does adultery G Well, I went to the big city D With my clothes in a pack G When I got off at the station A7 D There was no turning back G I met freaks and creeps and weirdos D Loose women and some geeks A7 And they were the nicest gosh darn people G D I'd ever hope to meet D When you roll into a small town, they're nice as they can be D7 But at night they put on sheets and hang your sad ass from a tree G They're in a small town D Don't dare be different A7 'Cos hate lives in a small town G D Unless you're just like them D So if you're livin' in a small town and you feel you're in a vice D7 Buy yourself a ticket, kid, hell, just take my advice G And leave the small town D Be quick as you can be A7 Get out of that small town G D And you'll be free like me
End on one strike of D
