I know all the finger positioning for the song because I watched the video
of him on Fearless Music and I’m surprised nobody has noticed this yet I
don’t know all the names of the chords however so I must apologize for that.
But it’s as close to perfect as I could manage. If this is approved then this
will be my first approved tab so please be generous in your ratings.
--Still Pending.

C
You say we're both little people and you like it that way
A7 FBarr
But in time I'm gonna put this body to shame (and grow old)
Wear 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 A7
Whether you like this town or not
I know it's small but with a big head
FBarr
It's bound to get hot
In the summer
But the summer is a bummer
G
If you can't leave
This pathetic excuse for a town
F
That holds all your memories
C
A lifetime of crushes and your broken dreams
B2
To be anywhere but here
C/G(only strum this once)
But baby anywhere is away from me
C
Awhoohooooooo
A7
If you got it all figured out
FBarr
Then what is there to shout about
G
This midwest town is gonna miss you
C
Awhoohooooooo
A7
Just go ahead and work it out
FBarr
But first come on and let it out
G
Scream and shout and tell everybody that your gonna leave
Solo? Interlude? ???

This is only in the recorded version and in the video where I tabbed the rest

speed as the verse goes
C
In about one year you'll have it all figured out
A7
These big city dreams are what you're about

Walking like strangers among these states
G
Only time will tell how long I can wait

We've got it good A7

Would you take the hit for me or the home team?
I prefer to just snap or tap my guitar for this last part because that makes
me look multi-talented and it makes it easier to get some;)...
Sorry if that was offensive. :(
If you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about
This midwest town is gonna miss you
And... DONE!
