Verse:
Dm                  G
Every day is just a little white lie
Dm                 G
Tellin' myself I'm gettin' by
Dm                  G
I just stay in this room and cry
    C              E7         Am    F  G
The snow it covers up the ground
    C              E7        Am    F  G
And I can't hear a single sound
 

Dm                     G
Turn off the TV and go out for a drive
Dm                      G
I can't see there's any signs of life
Dm                             G
'cept this christmas tree with blinkin' lights
             C             E7        Am    F  G
I could have made it but I messed around
      C            E7       Am    F  G
I'm a loser with a rusted crown
Dm                            G
Scared if I jump in the ocean I might drown
 
Chorus:
    C         E7        Am    F  G
The king of a one horse town
        C         E7        Am    F  G
I'm the king of a one horse town
      F                          G
And I barely pull my weight around

Verse:
Dm                        G
Thought about leavin' but I don't know
Dm                    G
Wouldn't even know anywhere to go
Dm                     G
Guess I'll stay on desolation road
       C          E7       Am    F  G
Go get stoned and hang around
        C          E7      Am    F  G
Beat my drum is my only sound
Dm                              G
I'd jump into the ocean but I'm scared I'll drown
