[Verse]
G C
They say life is so much sweeter
G D
through the telephoto lens of fame
G C
around here you get just as much attention
G D G
cheerin' at the high school football game
G C
I dreamed of going to Nashville
G D
Put my money down and placed my bet
G C
But I just got the first buck of the season
G D G
I made the front page of the Turnertown Gazette
[Chorus]
C G
Every last one, route one, rural hearts got a story to tell
C
Every grandma, in law, ex girlfriend
G D
Maybe knows us just a little too well
C
Whether you're late for church or you're stuck in jail
G C
Hey words gonna get around
G D G
Everybody dies famous in a small town
[Verse]
Tyler and Casey broke up
It ended pretty quietly
We heard he was caught red-handed with her mama
That's just what they let us all believe
[Chorus]
C G
Every last one, route one, rural hearts got a story to tell
C
Every grandma, in law, ex girlfriend
G D
Maybe knows us just a little too well
C
Whether you're late for church or you're stuck in jail
G C
Hey words gonna get around
G D G
Everybody dies famous in a small town
[Bridge]
C G
Baby who needs their faces in a magazine
C D
Me and you we've been stars of the town since we were 17
Let's go on down to the quick stop
Wear your yellow shades
And I'll put on my tight jeans
And we'll just spend the weekend burnin' rubber
And we'll let em point and stare distantly
[Chorus]
C G
Every last one, route one, rural hearts got a story to tell
C
Every grandma, in law, ex girlfriend
G D
Maybe knows us just a little too well
C
Whether you're late for church or you're stuck in jail
G C
Hey words gonna get around
G D G
Everybody dies famous in a small town
