🎸 Verse 1:
DmDm      FF         C majorC            G+G
Grew up in a small town twenty miles from the state line
DmDm         C majorC       G+G
Learned early on to work hard for what I thought was mine
DmDm         FF       C majorC         G+G
In the town that I call home there are two types of folks
DmDm            C majorC             G+G
Those that find their way out and there's those that don't

🎸 Chorus:
FF     C majorC  FF      C majorC  FF      G+G     C majorC   G+G FF
And I will give anything to live under those California stars, oh Lord
G+G             C majorC         DmDm
Guess I'll settle on these Carolina scars

FF C majorC G+G


🎸 Verse 2:
DmDm          FF          C majorC         G+G
So I packed up like a freight train and I headed towards the lights
DmDm             C majorC             G+G
But the back of my daddy's Chevrolet was as far as I got that Saturday night
DmDm             FF   C majorC          G+G
Like a good drug she got me high
Lord did she let me down
DmDm        C majorC          G+G
And left me here alone to die in this God-forsaken, one-horse town


🎸 Chorus:
FF      C majorC     FF     C majorC         FF      G+G     C majorC   G+G FF
And I would trade the money that I've made for one night under California stars, oh Lord
G+G             C majorC         DmDm
Guess I'll settle on these Carolina scars

FF C majorC G+G DmDm FF C majorC G+G


🎸 Verse 3:
DmDm      FF      C majorC            G+G
Now I am not ungrateful, please don't misunderstand
            C majorC       G+G
Just a gambler out here waitin' on my winnin' hand
DmDm           FF     C majorC         G+G
My daddy taught me the lesson he had to teach himself
DmDm          C majorC        G+G
And to me that's more important than any kind of man-made wealth


🎸 Chorus:
FF     C majorC     FF      C majorC          FF      G+G     C majorC   G+G FF
And I will return the lessons that I've learned for one night under California stars, oh Lord
G+G             C majorC
I'll just settle on these Carolina stars
