Dan sometimes slides into the barred Dm

[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

Instrumental to verse chords

[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

[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
C E7 Am F G
I'm the king of a one horse town
F G
And I barely pull my weight around

[Outro]
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
C E7 Am F G
I'm the king of a one horse town
F G
And I barely pull my weight around
