This Town Gets Around (CHORDS) by Margo Price
[Verse 1]~
E A E
In this town everybody's trying to get a piece of everybody else
B7
It gets hard to tell a real friend from a fake one
E A E
So many promises, favors, and lies, most of the town wears a good disguise
B7 E
And even I, too, have been known to wear one
[Verse 2]~
E A E
As the saying goes, it's not who you know, but it's who you blow that'll put you in the show
B7
And if that's not the case I hear you pay 'em
E A E
But I don't come easy and I'm flat broke, so I guess it's me who gets the joke
B7 E
Maybe I'd be smarter if I played dumb
[Chorus]~
A E
I can't count all the times I've been had
B7
Now I know much better than to let that make me mad
A E
I don't let none of that get me down
B7 E
From what I've found this town gets around
[Verse 3]~
E A E
Now the very first manager I ever had, he was old enough he could have been my dad
B7
He took me out for drinks and talked a big talk
E A E
He said, "darling sign on the dotted line, kiss my cheek and drink this wine
B7 E
But if you walk on me, then you can just walk."
[Chorus]~
A E
I can't count all the times I've been had
B7
Now I know much better than to let that make me mad
A E
I don't let none of that get me down
B7 E
From what I've found this town gets around

[Verse 4]~
E A
When I first came here the streets were paved with gold and you can walk that road, I've been told
E A
But I won't put out or be controlled, I don't write the shit that gets bought and sold
B B
Ask any man, he might know
B B
Who used to live on Music Row
B
But that was then, and this is now
E
He told me this town gets around
