[Intro] D Em G A
[Verse 1]
D Em
Never did fit in
G A
Always the one left out
D
Just the girl at the back
Em G A
You never gave a damn about
D Em
Tough growing up
G A
When they shoot you down
D Em
But I knew someday someway
G A
It was all about just getting out
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Then I turned eighteen
D A
Said I'm gonna sing
Em
Packed my bags and they laughed
G D A
Said you'll never be anything
[Chorus]
D
Well talk of the town
Em
That's what I am now
G A D
Hear them whispering about the dreams I have
Em
Behind my back
G A D
I'm just the girl with her head in the clouds
Em G A
Feet off the ground I'm going up no I won't come down
eM G
So I'll keep walking you'll keep talking

I'll move on and still be the talk of this town

D Em
Well the word got back
G A
And it wasn't so good
D Em
The city scared me a little more
G A
Than I thought it would

They said I told you so
G A
We knew it wouldn't last
D
But I'm not crying to my mama
Em
I'm doing what I wanna
G A
Bet you weren't expecting that yeah
[Chorus]

Talk of the town

One day I might be on your TV screen
