πΈ Verse:
A E
I pulled into my old spot
d
Right beside the football field
A
And it looks the same it hasn't changed
D
Even though it's been ten years
A D
And I'm sitting here self conscious 'bout the tag still on my dress
A E D
And I hope that they can't tell that I've got whiskey on my breath
F#m E D
Yeah I hate that I ain't everything they thought that I would be
F#m E
"Most likely to succeed"
D
Is still hanging over me
πΈ Chorus:
A
I'll walk in they'll ask me how I've been
E
I ain't seen them since God knows when
D
They've all got husbands, all got babies
I can barely pay my rent
A
I'm living the dream as far as they know
E
But they're naive to how this goes
D
So I'll do what I do best
And put on a damn good show
F#m E D
Just for tonight I might lie so I can be that girl again
F#m E D
Cuz I was really something to my high school friends
πΈ Verse:
A E
Yeah they placed the bets that two years in
D
I'd be a household name
A E
So I sent 'em off to college
D
While I chased that Nashvile dream
F#m7 E
And I'm chasin' it but I'm waitressin'
D
And they don't get the game
F#m E
So I'll make 'em proud and tell 'em how
D
I'm on the edge of fame
πΈ Chorus:
A
Yeah I'll walk in they'll ask me how I've been
E
I ain't seen them since God knows when
D
They've all got husbands, all got babies
And I can barely pay my rent
A
I'm living the dream as far as they know
E
But they're naive to how this goes
D
So I'll do what I do best
And put on a damn good show
F#m E D
Just for tonight I might lie so I can be that girl again
F#m E D
Cuz I was really something to my high school friends
πΈ Post-Chorus:
A E D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
A E D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
πΈ Break:
F#m E D
Yeah I hate that I ain't everything they thought that I would be
F#m7 E
But just give me ten more years
D
And bet I'll be a somebody
πΈ Chorus:
A
And I'll walk in they'll ask me how I've been
E
I ain't seen them since God knows when
D
They've all got husbands, all got babies
I can barely pay my rent
A
I'm living the dream as far as they know
E
But they're naive to how this goes
D
So I'll do what I do best
And put on a damn good show
F#m E D
Just for tonight I might lie so I can be that girl again
F#m A D
Cuz I was really something
F#m7 E D
Yeah, I was really something
