I Heard I Was In Town

Jimmy Buffett


Tom: G

 G
Came to see friends

Walk old streets again
       Bm                      C
Grab a bite and a beer by the sea

It caught my attention
     G
The old town has grown
         C         D
That's why I came alone
      G
I've been treated well

I raised all kinds of hell
        Bm                   C
When a full tank was only a fin
                          G
Ain't it quite funny how things turn around
   C              G
I heard I was in town
 D            G
Madman in a pickup truck
  D            G
So many years ago
 Bm                         C
Changes have come like the storms of the season
                A7         D
But time here still moves slow
 G
Passed the old joints

My favorite haunts where
 Bm                      C
We'd stay for twelve or ten
                      G
Ain't it quite funny word gets around
   C              G
I heard I was in town

(instrumental)
         D           G
I was a madman in a pickup truck
D
So many years ago
Bm                          C
Changes have come like the storms of the seasons
           A7          D
Time here still moves slow
 G
Came to see friends

Walk old streets again
       Bm                       D
Maybe strike up a tune with the moon

Don't it seem funny
 G
Word gets around
   C              G
I heard I was in town

Coda:
 D
Ain't it quite funny
 G
Word gets around
   C      D       G
I heard I was in town
