Intro: | Bm  | D  | G    D  | A    G  |

Verse 1:
 Bm
County line, I'm countin' down
 D
Mailboxes until my house
                  G                 D
This place had a heartbeat in it's day
                 A                                  G
Vail bought the mountains, and nothing was the same
          Bm
Yes, the boys are drunk, the sun is high
       D
Their license plates "Live Free or Die"
                    G                       D
But it just ain't that simple, it never was
                  A                                     G
We'll drink 'til New Year's, then they'll leave me to clean up

Chorus:
         D    Gb            Bm
One day, I'm gonna cut it clear
                  G
Ride like Paul Revere
                            A
And, when they ask me who I am
                G               D
I'll say, "I'm not from around here"

Verse 2:
      Bm
I'll leave before the road crew's out
              D
Before those joggers looking way too proud
                      G
And I'll turn up the music
             D
And I'll forget
         A                                G
Until it ends, that I'm not ready to let go yet

Chorus:
         D    Gb            Bm
One day, I'm gonna cut it clear
                  G
Ride like Paul Revere
                            A
And, when they ask me who I am
            G               D
I'll just pretend I didn't hear
      Gb         Bm
It's typical, I fear
                 G
Folks just disappear
                            A
And, when they ask me who I am
                G               D      Gb    Bm    G
I'll say, "I'm not from around here"

Post-Chorus:
A                  G             Bm
 I'll say, "I'm not from around here"

Outro:
            A
But I'm in my car
            E  
And I see the yard
               G             Gb            Bm
The patch of grass where we buried the dog
               A
And the world makes sense
           E  
Behind a chain-link fence
            G                Gb            Bm
If I could leave, I would've already left
            A
But I'm in my car
            E  
And I see the yard
               G             Gb            Bm
The patch of grass where we buried the dog
               A
And the world makes sense
           E  
Behind a chain-link fence
            G                Gb            G
If I could leave, I would've already left
A                    Bm
 I would've already left

Outro: Bm

Today is israel’s bithday and I played the song for him. I hope he’s watching. He died in 1995 and I feel true grave for him. 🙁

Beane

Iz isn’t dead my friends. He is just watching his troubles melt away like lemon drops, somewhere over the rainbow. He lives on… in our hearts.

Noah

Hey, what is the strumming pattern for this?

Russ

The “D” didn’t quite sound right to me. I play a G7 I stead and that works well.

Yeet

Hi! This is a helpful tip!

strumming pattern is:⬇️⬇️⬆️ ⬆️⬇️⬆️
the space is a pause for a second!
Some people say DDU-UDU, which basically means D=down, U=up.

hope this helps!

Bib

Please like my pet hamster he is dying

Yea… Can you be quiet now? This website is to learn how to play ukulele, not be disrespectful to others. I know you’re probably gonna respond with some stupid reply, but just leave every else alone. You’ve done enough and it’s getting old. Like c’mon dude, it’s not funny and never was in the first place.
