  Intro:     D


  D                   G
 Cops showed up at a little old six 
           Bm             A
 With the FBI and their black crown vicks 
  D                            G
 Cuffed coach Martin with his face in the ground 
 Bm                          A
 Neighbors say he got off a couple a rounds 
  G
 Hundred thousand dollars in an old suitcase 
  A
 He had a green house in his crawl space 


           D                    G
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 
       Em7                         A
 There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out 
     D                          G
 And everybody knows cause the word gets around 
           Bm                   A                   
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 

 D    G    Em7    A


   D             G
 Stereotypical preachers wife 
 Bm                   A
 Everybody loved her she was so nice 
 D                             G
 Never told a soul about the things he did
 Bm                             A
 Till she took a bottle to the back of his head 
  G
 They say she simply told 911 
     A
 Now he deserved what I just done


           D                    G
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 
       Em7                         A
 There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out 
     D                          G
 And everybody knows cause the word gets around 
           Bm                   A                   
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town

 D    G    Em7    A   x2
 

     D                  G
 Now everyones proud of Mary Lou 
     Bm                    A
 She had a full ride to a private school 
  D                       G
 Gonna be a doctor or a lawyer someday 
Bm              A
 She's 17 and three months late 
G
 We all thought that she'd never been kissed but 
A
 She doesn't know who the daddy is 


           D                    G
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town 
       Em7                         A
 There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out 
     D                          G
 And everybody knows cause the word gets around 
           Bm                   A                   
 When the lights come on in a sleepy little town

 D     G    Em7    A    x3

 End on D

Awesome song, but the chorus is more like this

D G
When the lights come on in a sleepy little town
D/B A
There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out
D/F# G
And everybody knows cause the word gets around
D/B A
When the lights come on in a sleepy little town
