  			A Ain't it strange how people change 
And D almost over-{A} night 
D Who once was a A country girl 
Is now a social-{E} ite 
We're A proud for you, but when you're through 
And D seek some common A ground 
D Oh, we A miss you 
On the E old side of A town. 
 
E We still drink cokes and tell old jokes 
And D bowl at E Splits 'n' A Strikes 
D Country music still A plays 
   (George Jones is still a hero--2nd chorus) 
On the jukebox every E night 
So-{A} ci-ety is not for me 
But D I can still be A found 
D Oh, we A miss you 
On the E old side of A town. 
 
R-S-V-P is not for me 
And black ties are not my style 
I thought you'd like to know 
'Cause you ain't been here for awhile 
We read about your Tour D'Force 
We're glad you get around 
But we miss you 
On the old side of town. 
 
CHORUS 
 
Babe, we miss you on the old side of town.
