My Home Town
Tono: Original
My Home Town by Tom Lehrer
Verse 1:
C Am Dm7 G7
I really have a yen, to go back once again
C Am Dm7 G7
Back to the place where no-one wears a frown
F B7 C
To see once more those super special just plain folks
D7 G7 C / C#dim / Dm7 / G7
In my home town
C Am Dm7 G7
No fellow could ignore, that little girl next door
C Am Dm7 G7
She sure looked sweet in her first evening gown
F B7 C
Now there's a charge for what she used to give for free
D7 G7 C / C#dim / Dm7 / G7
In my home town
Refrain 1:
C C7 F7
I remember Dan, the druggist on the corner
C7 C
He was never mean or ornery, he was swell
F7 Am
He killed his mother-in-law and ground her up real well
C A+ D7 G7
And sprinkled just a bit over each banana split
Verse 2:
C Am Dm7 G7
The guy that taught us math, who never took a bath
C Am Dm7 G7
Acquired a certain measure of renown
F B7 C
And after school he sold the most amazing pictures
D7 G7 C / C#dim / Dm7 / G7
In my home town
C Am Dm7 G7
That fellow was no fool, who taught us Sunday School
C Am Dm7 G7
And neither was our kindly Parson Brown
F B7 C
[line omitted to avoid prosecution under Communications Decency Act]
D7 G7 C / C#dim / Dm7 / G7
In my home town
Refrain 2:
C C7 F7
I remember Sam, he was the village idiot
C7 C
Although it seems a pity it was so
F7 Am
He loved to burn down houses just to watch the glow
C A+ D7 G7
And nothing could be done, because he was the Mayor's son
C Am Dm7 G7
The guy that took a knife, and monogrammed his wife
C Am Dm7 G7
Then dropped her in the pond and watched her drown
F B7 C
Oh, yes, indeed, the people there are just plain folks
D7 G7 C / C#dim / Dm7 / G
In my home town
Ahhhh... memories! Sounds just like my own home-town...
