Anyone got the chords for Kate and Anna McGarrigle's 'My Town'. I've worked out the chords for the verse..its the chorus thats stumping me. I'm doing it in A, but not bothered which key anyone will know it in.
Cheers .
Gato.

Lyrics copied from http://www.cowboylyrics.com/tabs/mcgarrigles/my-town-3800.html and checked against the recording at Spotify:


MY TOWN
Written by Anna McGarrigle
Recorded by Kate & Anna McGarrigle on "Kate & Anna McGarrigle" (1975)

1. When I awake, I think of you,
Who made my heart break and made me feel like a fool.
You led me on just to bring me down, and I felt so low.
So if the stars are bright tonight, I'll get up and go.

2. On my way, I walked through town
And stopped at your house but you weren't around.
The lights were on to ward off thieves while you stayed out all night,
But it was you who stole my heart when you hadn't any right.

CHORUS: It's my town but I had to leave it
And head south where the climate is kind,
And if a time comes when I'm feelin' better,
I'll be back with the birds in the spring.

3. Paid my fare and I took the train.
I'd soon forget but now I felt the pain.
Though I tried to think of better days lyin' in my berth,
I pondered revenge for what it was worth. CHORUS
