I can transcribe lyrics; maybe someone else can provide chords.


SMALL TOWN TALK
As sung by Bobby Charles on "Bobby Charles" (2006)

It's all small-town talk.
You know how people are.
They can't stand to see
Someone else doin' what they like to do.

It's all small-town talk.
You mustn't pay no mind.
Don't believe a word.
They'll try to do it ev'ry time.

You can't believe ev'rything you hear
And only half of what you see,
And if you're gonna believe in anyone,
You gotta believe in me.

It's all small-town talk,
And it's a well known fact.
You don't ever know
How one might react
To what you're thinking,
And in small-town talk
They tell a lot of lies,
Make some people crazy,
Never realize
That they're sinking.

We're only two people tryin' to live together,
Tryin' to make something work.
Who are we to judge one another?
That could cause a lot o' hurt.

It's all small-town talk.
You know how people are.
They can't stand to see
Someone else doin' what they want to do.

It's all small-town talk.
Mustn't pay no mind.
Don't believe a word.
They'll try to do it ev'ry time.

Thank you very much. I have some personal stuff to deal with at the moment but I'll be dusting of the Fender as soon as.
Thanks again
Charlie.
