NOBODY KNOWS ME IN TOWN ANY MORE 121311 - ONE MORE

James Michael Taylor

When this happened I couldn’t get home before I had the song half written. What a lonely feeling.

NOBODY KNOW ME IN TOWN ANY MORE Key of G

G Em
There’s a bird in the gutter that’s so sound asleep
C D
He can’t hear the music that’s washing the street
That’s shaking the leaves and selling the beer
Down town Fort Worth Texas, Yes, I am back here

I’m down here at the corner open case at my feet
This cowboy and guitar just can’t compete
With some upstart from Dallas who preens on the stage
At a place called 8.0 which tonight is the rage

Am D
And nobody knows me in town any more
G Em
I guess I had my turn and now i am just bored
Am D
And I feel out of place maybe I’m getting old
G C or Em D G
And nobody knows me in town any more

I used to be someone when I’d come to town
I’d be up on that stage. Not down here on the ground
With two pretty ladies. One on each side
Now I stand here unnoticed just wanting to hide

And nobody knows me in town any more
I guess I had my turn but it’s over for sure
And I feel out of place baby I’m feeling cold
And nobody knows me in town any more

And now I’m alone. None to have none to hold
All them love stories in songs we once told
Came true or came false it don’t matter for sure
And nobody knows me in town any more

And nobody knows me in town any more
I guess I had my turn but now it’s all over
And I feel out of place baby I’m feeling cold
And nobody knows me in town any more
