1. Just off of the beaten path
   C                  D
   A little dot on a state road map

2. In the corner of a hardware store
   C                  D
   Gathered round a checker board
   C               D                G
   Old men telling lies & crowning kings
   G                     D
   Kids drivin round the old town square
   C                       D
   Tops rolled down in the cool nite air
   C                 D                   G
   Go & see what's shakin at the Dairy Queen

R: Down Home where they know...
