Intro: F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7 F Am F Am
I'm only Fseventeen, but I want much more
Than a Amsmall town girl should bargain for
More than Fstanding in one place,
Waiting for the next James AmDean.
I live in a Ftown that's gripped in the Bible belt,
Man, I Ambared my back and I took the welts
I only Fpray to get out of here
Maybe someday I'll Amfind out if the world is green
There is Fnothing to do in this Ftown at night but
FSit in my car and Fwatch the streetlights
Or Fstare out the window at the Fpizza joint
Am7What's the point?
I wish I could Fbuy my Gford a Fsail
Hey, hey, look at the wind Fblow
Now the Flife of the local beauty queen
Is Amtied to the captain of the baseball team
They got a Fbaby on the way
At least that's what the kids are Amsaying
And the Fwedding I'm told, well it must take place
To Amsave both families from disgrace
But the Fwhole town knows, you see,
It ain't like she's not Amshowing...
There is Fnothing to do in this Ftown at night but
FSit in my car and Fwatch the streetlights
Or Fstare out the window at the Fpizza joint
Am7What's the point?
I wish I could Fbuy my Gford a Fsail
Hey, hey, look at the wind Fblow
FTommy bates sits in his car and he waits
For his Fmaj7girl down at lucky's diner
They're at the Fend of the loop and he's drinking soup
While she Fmaj7puts on more eyeliner
I Fpassed them once, and I'll pass them twice,
And I'll Fmaj7pass them back again
They bought an Fold range rover from the next town over
And their Fmaj7headlights are my friends,
Yeah, those Am7headlights are my Gfriends...
There is Fnothing to do in this Ftown at night but
FSit in my car and Fwatch the streetlights
Or Fstare out the window at the Fpizza joint
Am7What's the point?
I wish I could Fbuy my Gford a Fsail
Hey, hey, look at the wind Fblow
F Am F Am...
Hey, look at the wind blow...
Hey, look at the wind blow...
