Small Town Favorite

E
How do you turn a scholarship down,
A
Tear up a ticket, already punched,
E
And watch a dream die?
E
Who's gonna tell me how
A
To face Daddy
E
And watch Momma cry?
B
Have I thrown my future away?
A
Played my last football game?
B
It all seems so strange
A
That in just one night
            B
Your whole life can change.

          A
Wish this old John Deere had wings
         E                 B
And this cotton row was an airstrip
A               B(quick hit)
Way outta here.
A
Wish this high noon Georgia sun
      E                B
Could melt what's been done
         A
Make it disappear.
           C#m    B       A
If I could leave, I'd be gone,
                A        G#m       F#m       B
But that's just one more thing done wrong
By this small town favorite son.

E
By fall they're all gonna know
A
Our little secret
E
My baby holds inside.
E
By then she'll be startin' to show,
A
And I'll be the husband
E
To a shotgun bride.
B
I already miss that sound
A
The marching bands and the cheering crowds.
B
Stuck here in this red dirt ground
A                            B
Knowin' I,   I let everybody down.

          A
Wish this old John Deere had wings
         E                 B
And this cotton row was an airstrip
A               B(quick hit)
Way outta here.

           C#m    B       A
If I could leave, I'd be gone,
                A        G#m       F#m       B
But that's just one more thing done wrong
By this small town favorite son.

A
This high noon Georgia sun
      E                B
Can't melt what's been done.
        A
Girl, I be right here
C#m B     A
 I don't know much about life
A     G#m         F#m          B
But I know what's right
N.C
For this small town favorite son.
