Subject: There Goes The Neighborhood by Joe Diffie

There Goes The Neighborhood          Joe Diffie

G                   D                C
The house next door just came up for sale
G                   D        C
She's goin' home to Mama she says, "He can go to hell."
G                             D               C
The couple down the block are splittin' up, I hear
          G                         D    Bm
There the third one's on our street this year

           C             D          G
It's just another day in Anytown, USA
C                           D     G               C
Somebody's hurt, somebody's blue, somebody moves away
     G                 D                  C
What little they do to make it work don't seem to do much good
                G    D                      G
When love moves out, there goes the neighborhood

G                D                 C
First, they take off their wedding bands
G                       D               C
They call it quits then call the moving vans
G                D         C
He takes his and she takes hers
                 G        D               Bm
And what's left over gets left out on the curb

           C             D          G
It's just another day in Anytown, USA
C                           D     G               C
Somebody's hurt, somebody's blue, somebody moves away
     G                 D                  C
What little they do to make it work don't seem to do much good
                G    D                      G
When love moves out, there goes the neighborhood

           C             D          G
It's just another day in Anytown, USA
C                           D     G               C
Somebody's hurt, somebody's blue, somebody moves away
     G                 D                  C
What little they do to make it work don't seem to do much good
                G    D                      G
When love moves out, there goes the neighborhood

                G    D                      G
When love moves out, there goes the neighborhood
