Little Man
guitar tabs lyrics
Little Man, Alan Jackson
Capo I
Intro: C, F
Verse 1
C G
remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk
F
Lookin' in windows at things I couldn't want
C G
There's johnson's hardware and morgans jewelry
F
And the ol' Lee king's and the pots they carried
C F
They were the little man
C F
The little man
Verse 2
C G
I go back now and the stores are all empty
F
Except for an old coke sign from 1950
C G
Boarded up like they never existed
F
Or renovated and called historic districts
C F
There goes the little man
C
There goes the little man
Chorus:
Am F
Now the court square's just a set of streets
C G
That the people go round but they seldom think
Am F
Bout the little man that built this town
C G
Before the big money shut em down
C F
And killed the little man
C
Oh the little man
Same all the way through
Verse 3
He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
The new stores came where you do it yourself
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
Forget about the little man
Forget about that little man
Verse 4
He hung on there for a few more years
But he couldn't sell slurpees
And he wouldn't sell beer
Now the bank rents the station
To a man down the road
And they sell velvet Elvis and
Second-hand clothes
There goes little man
There goes another little man
Chorus then lead
Verse 5
Now the are lined up in a concrete strip
You can buy the world with just one trip
And save a penny cause it's jumbo size
They don't even realize
They'er killin' the little man
Oh the little man
Chorus
Verse 6
It wasn't long when I was a child
An old black man came with his plow
He broke the ground where we grew our garden
Back before we'd all forgot about the little man
The little man
Long live the little man
God bless the little man
Pretty easy song basic chords Enjoy!!!
