[Verse 1]
E B
I remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk
A
Lookin' in windows at things I could want
E B
There's Johnson's hardware and Morgan's jewelry
A
And the ol' Lee King's apothecary
E A
They were the little man
E
The little man
[Verse 2]
E B
I go back now and the stores are all empty
A
Except for an old coke sign dated 1950
E B
Boarded up like they never existed
A
Or renovated and called historic districts
E A
There goes the little man
E
There goes the little man
[Chorus]
C#m A
Now the court square's just a set of streets
E B
That the people go round but they seldom think
C#m A
Bout the little man that built this town
E B
Before the big money shut em down
E A
And killed the little man
E A
Oh the little man
[Verse 3]
E B
He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass
A
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
E B
The new stores came where you do it yourself
A
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
E A
Forget about the little man
E
Forget about that little man
[Verse 4]
E B
He hung on there for a few more years
A
But he couldn't sell slurpees, and he wouldn't sell beer
E
Now the bank rents the station
B
To a man down the road
A
And they sell velvet Elvis and second-hand clothes
E A
There goes the little man
E
There goes another little man
[Chorus]
C#m A
Now the court square's just a set of streets
E B
That the people go round but they seldom think
C#m A
Bout the little man that built this town
E B
Before the big money shut em down
E A
And killed the little man
E
Oh the little man
[Instrumental]
C#m A E B C#m A E B E E
[Verse 5]
E B
Now the stores are lined up in a concrete strip
A
You can buy the world with just one trip
E B
And save a penny cause it's jumbo size
A
And they don't even realize
E A
They're killin' the little man
E
Oh the little man
[Chorus]
C#m A
Now the court square's just a set of streets
E B
That the people go round but they seldom think
C#m A
Bout the little man that built this town
E B
Before the big money shut em down
E A
And killed the little man
E A
Oh the little man
[Verse 6]
E B
It wasn't long when I was a child
A
An old black man came with his mule and his plow
E B
He broke the ground where we grew our garden
A
Back before we'd all forgotten
E A
About the little man
E A
The little man
E A
Long live the little man
E
God bless the little man
