Intro: G  C  G  C  G  C  D  C 

G                     C 
Common cool, he was a proud young fool 
     G                 C 
In a kick-ass Wal-Mart tie 
G                C 
Ripping down the main drag 
                D                  C 
Tripping on the headlights rolling by 
       G                   C 
In the early dawn when the cars were gone 
       G                 C 
Did he hear the master's call 
       D                    C 
In the five-and-dime did he wake and find 
       Am   G/B      C     D 
He was only dreaming after all, 'cause 



Em         Am       D 
This is an ordinary town 
                        Em 
And the prophet stands apart 
           Am       D 
This is an ordinary town 
                B7      Em 
And we brook no wayward heart 
          C                 G    C        F     B 
And every highway leads you prodigal back home  
       Em  C    G                  D 
To the ordinary sidewalks you were born to roam 


G             C 
Rock of ages, love contagious 
G                 C 
Shine the serpent fire 
   G                C 
So sang the sage of sixteen summers  
D               C 
In the upstairs choir 
   G                C 
So sang the old dog down the street  
  G                C 
Beside his wailing wall 
    D                   C 
"Go home, go home", the mayor cried  
     Am    G/B     C    D 
When Jesus came to city hall, 'cause 



Em         Am       D 
This is an ordinary town 
                        Em 
And the prophet stands alone 
           Am       D 
This is an ordinary town 
            B7     Em 
And we crucify our own 
          C                 G    C    F     B 
And every highway leads you prodigal again  
       Em  C    G               D 
To the ordinary houses you were brought up in 


Instrumental:  


G                     C 
Raised on hunches and junk food lunches 
    G                    C 
And punch-drunk ballroom steps 
    G                       C 
You get to believing you're even-Steven 
         D                  C 
With the kids at Fast-Track Prep 
       G                    C 
So you dump your bucks on a velvet tux 
        G                C 
And you run and join the dance 
         D                  C 
But your holy shows and the Romans know 
       Am     G/B      C     D 
You're just a child of circumstance, 'cause 



Em         Am       D 
This is an ordinary town 
                       Em 
And the prophet has no face 
           Am       D 
This is an ordinary town 
                B7     Em 
And the seasons run in place 
          C                 G    C       F     B 
And every highway leads you prodigal and true  
       Em  C    G               D 
To the ordinary angels watching over you
