[Verse 1]
I pour my heart out, three minutes at a time
On a J-45, but no one's listening
They're too busy drinking on the company tab
I scream my lungs out, confess my secrets, all my sins
But they don't give a damn
'Cause if it don't sound like the radio? Pass

[Chorus]
Nashville, you win
Your steel guitars and broken hearts have done me in
I gave you my soul, 'cause I wanted it so bad
And now I just wanna go home
This town is killing me
This town is killing me

[Verse 2]
They buried my grandad without me
Cause I was out on the road at some one off show
In Tupelo, and I can't take that one back
I was in love once and I pushed him away
And the price I pay is a whole lot of lonely nights
And a whole lot of songs that never see the light

[Chorus]
Nashville, you win
Your steel guitars and broken hearts have done me in
I gave you my soul, 'cause I wanted it so bad
And now I just wanna go home
This town is killing me
This town is killing me
Oh this town is killing
This town is killing me

[Outro]
Nashville, you win
Cause I'll wake up here tomorrow, do it all over again
Even though you're killing me
Oh, this town is killing me
This town is killing me
