G Cadd9 Well it was 65 degrees and wind all around G Cadd9 Bobby said there ain't nothing to do in this west Texas town D Cadd9 He drove down to the liquor store just like the night before D Cadd9 G Another fifth of whisky and he'll windup on the floor Now on the other side of town on the wrong side of the tracks Sandy Parker sits alone in her run down little shack Well her new step dad had too much to drink tonight Turns on the radio just to drown out the fightOn an 80 acre farm on the outskirts of town An old farmer wipes the sweat from his brow Well theses damned old crops don't pay like they used to But it's all he knows what else is there to do ChorusEm D C And she sings, I want to be just like the stars up on the big screen Em C D Running wild and free chasing my dreams Em D C Then I could fly away and leave this town behind Am D G Instead I'm stuck her, watching life slowly pass me by
