Big City Dreams

	  		C  
You say we're both little people and you like it that way  
 Am  
But in time I'm gunna put this body to shame (and grow old)  
 F  
Where a suit like my old man  
 G  
Pack up all my things and get my ass out of town  

              C  
We've got it good  
                              Am  
Whether you like this town or not  
                   
I know it's small but with a big head  
                   F  
it's bound to get hot  

In the summer  

But the summer is a bummer  
    G  
If you can't leave  
                            Am  
This pathetic excuse for a town  

 Am  
That holds all your memories  
 C  
A lifetime of crushes and your broken dreams  
 F  
To be anywhere but here  
 G  
But baby anywhere is away from me  

 C                    Am  
If you got it all figured out  
                       F  
Then what is there to shout about  
      G  
This midwest town is gunna miss you  
 C                  Am  
Just go ahead and work it out  
                       F  
But first come on and let it out  
 G  
Scream it shout tell everbody that your gunna leave  

 C  
In about one year you'll have it all figured out  
 Am  
These big city dream are what you're about  
 F  
Walking like stangers among these states  
 G  
Only time will tell how long I can wait  

              C  
We've got it good  
                              Am  
Whether you like this town or not  

I know it's small but with a big head  
                   F
