Well, I've seen two tabs of this song on the new so far, and both may be technically
than this, but this version I think you will find is more
playable on guitar. Don't forget to capo the first fret. Also, during the song there
many instruments that I'm not sure if some of the chords are
7ths or majors so i just play around. It was written on piano so it's a tough one for
but I find this way really fun to play! Enjoy and if Rufus
would release sheet music for his songs I would buy it, until then we're all stuck with
best guess!
**This is only my interpretation of the Rufus Wainsright song 'Going to a Town'. Thanks
the previous two tabs that got me started!**

(Back to Verse)
Tell me do you really think you go to hell for having loved?
Tell me and not for thinking every thing that you've done is good
I really need to know
After soaking the body of Jesus Christ in blood
I'm so tired of America
I really need to know
I may just never see you again or might as well
You took advantage of a world that loved you well
I'm going to a town that has already been burned down
I'm so tired of you America
(Chorus Again)
Making my own way home
Ain't gonna be alone
I got a life to lead America
Am7 G
I got a life to lead
G Dm7
I got a soul to feed
Dm7 E7
I got a dream to heed
E F F#7 B7
And that's all I need
Am7 G
Making my own way home
G Dm7
Ain't gonna be alone
Dm7 E7 E F F#7 B7 E?
I'm going to a town that has al-rea-dy been burned down
