I agree with the previous chord layouts EXCEPT the chords for the "CHORUS."

intro "hammer-on" Am,G,D,Am then repeat the "hammer-on" throughout the song after 
playing the Am after the D

"hammer-on" Am             G
She grew up in an Indiana town
      D                       Am
Had a good lookin' momma who never was around
  Am                         G
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
          D                  Am
With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night

repeat the preceding chords for the rest of the lyrics 

Well she moved down here at the age of 18
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
She said, "I dig you baby but I got to keep movin'"
...on, keep movin' on

Chorus:
 E7
Last dance with Mary Jane
                            A
One more time to kill the p-a-i-n
E7
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
                A           G  
Tired of this town again




Well I don't know but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of screwing up, I'm tired of bein' down
I'm tire of myself, I'm tired of this town
Oh my my, oh hell yes
Honey put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song,
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long

Repeat chorus:

There's pidgeons down in Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
Nightfall will be comin' soon
Oh my my, oh hell yes
You've got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit my last number, I walked to the road (repeat chorus 2 more times or so)
