Nothin Main About Main Street

Em  G  C  C
Em  G  C  C

[Verse 1]
Em                         G                     C
Walkin' with the ghost's of yesterday through the streets of my hometown
Em                  G             C
Dusty old papers and memories like tumbleweeds blowin' around
Am                                Em
Nothin' but boarded up windows and locks on every door
           C                  D                 Em  G  C  C
There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore

[Verse 2]
   Em             G            C
The marquee on the Regal hasn't changed since '69
        Em              G                         C
And that old broken down merry go round's still in front of the five and dime
        Am                          Em
And that upstairs pool hall's gone along with the liquor store
           C                  D                 Em  D  Em
There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore

[Chorus]
         C
There was life in this old town
         G
There was fighting and loving, winning and losing
D                                                 Em  D  Em
Drinkin' and crusin' down Main Street in my old Ford
           C                    G                  C
There ain't no going back to the way things were before
           Am                 D                 Em  G  C  C
There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore

[Verse 3]
   Em                        G                  C
Big John never came back from Viet Nam, his mama died of a broken heart
Em              G                         C
Suzy's daddy got mean when he drank so her leavin' was the easy part
     Am                                             Em
Now I still go down there to look around but I don't know what I'm lookin' for
                  C                  D                 Em  D  Em
Cause, there ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore

[Chorus]
        C
There was life in this old town
         G
There was fighting and loving, winning and losing
D                                                 Em  D  Em
Drinkin' and crusin' down Main Street in my old Ford
           C                    G                  C
There ain't no going back to the way things were before
           Am                 D
There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore

[Instrumental]
Em  G  C  C
Em  G  C  C

[Chorus]
        C
There was life in this old town
         G
There was fighting and loving, winning and losing
D                                                 Em  D  Em
Drinkin' and crusin' down Main Street in my old Ford
           C                    G                  C
There ain't no going back to the way things were before
           Am                 D
There ain't nothin' main about Main Street
C                 D
Nothin' main about Main Street
           Am                 D
There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore...
