verse 1 I pour my heart out, three minutes at a time On a J-45, but no one's listening They're too busy drinking on the company tab I scream my lungs out, confess my secrets, all my sins But they don't give a damn Cause if it don't sound like the radio? Pass Nashville, you win Your steel guitars and broken hearts have done me in I gave you my soul, 'cause I wanted it so bad And now I just wanna go home This town is killing me This town is killing me verse 2 They buried my grandad without me Cause I was out on the road at some one off show In Tubalo, and I can't take that one back I was in love once and I pushed him away And the price I pay is a whole lot of lonely nights And a whole lot of songs that never see the light Nashville, you win Your steel guitars and broken hearts have done me in I gave you my soul, 'cause I wanted it so bad And now I just wanna go home This town is killing me This town is killing me Oh this town is killing This town is killing me Outro Nashville, you win Cause I'll wake up here tomorrow, do it all over again Even though you're killing me Oh, this town is killing me This town is killing me
