Sadtown USA — Carol Ades

[Intro]
B    F#m   A    E
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

[Verse 1]
B                          F#m
I confused a moment with forever
  A                                   E
Another dreamed up future bites the dust
B                          F#m
Nothing I can Do except surrender
           A                         E
I’ve been crying for an hour but an hour ain’t enough

[Pre-Chorus]
B                                        F#m
 I know when the pain is all gone, I can Do what I want, I can Do what I want to
A                                   E
 I hate that I gotta move on but I can’t until I want to cause I’m

[Chorus]
B
Stuck a thousand miles away
    F#m
In sadtown USA
      A                                           E
The feeling’s here to stay and nothing’s getting better, oh
     A                                F#m
And no one stays for forever but I’m staying for today
    A
In sadtown USA
                         E
Where nothing’s getting better

[Verse 2]
B                              F#m
All the voices in my head are critics
     A                                  E
They talk so much that I can’t h?ar my own
B                                  F#m
Stupidly I thought this would be different
       A                                     E
But I run my fing?rs on the map and there’s nowhere else to go, and I know

[Chorus]
B
Stuck a thousand miles away
    F#m
In sadtown USA
      A                                           E
The feeling’s here to stay and nothing’s getting better, oh
     A                                F#m
And no one stays for forever but I’m staying for today
    A
In sadtown USA
                         E
Where nothing’s getting better

[Outro]
              B
Oh where the sky is always gray and the coffee’s always cold
F#m                                                A
No leaves on the trees and the bars are always closed
                    E
I think I hate it here
           B
Where the bus is always late and the sweaters always itch
          F#m                                     A
And your heart hurts bad and the mayor is a ***** oh
                     E
I think I’m staying here
                     B
I think I’m staying here
F#m                      A
Oh, I think I’m staying here
E
I
B    F#m   A    E
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
