VERSE:
         G
To the small town, prom queen
 C
Working dead end at the Dairy Queen
         G
To the quarterback, chasing big dreams
        C
With a five nine frame and tore up knee
        Am                             C
To the single mom in a single wide lookin` for love
           G
Shake the dust

VERSE:
         G
To the sweethearts goin` gray
 C
Wastin` away behind the TV tray
        G
To the kid at the dance without a date
 C
Hugging the wall like a picture frame
       Am                                   C
To the big city brokers all over the right rates rush
           G
Shake the dust


CHORUS:
 G                               C
You`ll know when it`s the right time
                                       G
To pack your bags and put the car in drive
                                C
Or it`s the sun to the horizon line

 C                                        G
See if the grass is greener on the other side
                                C
When breaking out and breaking down
                                           Am
Sounds better than sticking around this`un now

 Am
Push the pedal down,
          C
Hit the clutch,
 C
Make it count,
       G
Shake the dust

VERSE:
         G
To the preacher`s kid chasing daddy`s name
        C
To the guitar man with rusty strings
  G
Standing on the edge of a breakaway
  C
Scared of the struggle along the way
Am                            C  C   G
Sometimes it takes a leap of faa-aa-aith


CHORUS:
 G                               C
You`ll know when it`s the right time
                                       G
To pack your bags and put the car in drive
                                C
Or it`s the sun to the horizon line

 C                                        G
See if the grass is greener on the other side
                                C
When breaking out and breaking down
                                           Am
Sounds better than sticking around this`un now

 Am
Push the pedal down,
          C
Hit the clutch,
 C
Make it count,
       G      C
Shake the dust
            G      C  C
Woh, shake the dust


CHORUS:
G                                  C
  You`ll know when it`s the right time
                                       G
To pack your bags and put the car in drive
                                C
Or it`s the sun to the horizon line

 C                                        G
See if the grass is greener on the other side
                                C
When breaking out and breaking down
                                           Am
Sounds better than sticking around this`un now

 Am
Push the pedal down,
          C
Hit the clutch,
 C
Make it count,
       G   G   C
Shake the duuuuust

Oh shake the duuuuust
            G   G   C   G   C
