[Intro]
NONE
[Verse]
Em D G Backyard dirt in our veins Em D G Blood of Christ, Sunday morning clothes Em D G We were coming of age Em D C In the way, way back of a station wagon, breathing secondhand smoke Em D G Ash trays in the kitchen sink Em D G Oprah's on the big TV at 4 Em D C Barbie clothes in a Crown Royal bag Em D G Jesus in the living room, Mama's locked her bedroom door
[Chorus]
C G C G When the way it was wasn't what it seemed D Em D Lemonade stand summers, prom king working at the Dairy Queen C G D Em All the stars we hung above those small-town trees C D Young hearts still unbroken, flies by before you know it Em D C If you move on just the way time does
Till something brings you right back
G C To growing up G C Growing up
[Verse]
Em D G Church field, travel carnival Em D G I'll meet you at the Ferris wheel at 10 Em D C We'll step across that line, just as far as we can go Em D G Before it's our turn to see how big the real world is
[Chorus]
C G C G When the way it was wasn't what it seemed D Em D Making out in back seats behind the Dairy Queen C G D Em All the stars we hung above those small-town trees C D Young hearts trying to out run 'em, promise we don't become 'em Em D C Just move on the way time does
Till something brings you right back
G C To growing up G C Growing up
[Break]
D C Now you're six years sober, taking your mother to her treatments D C She says she wants to see the old house one more time Em D C And you can't go back any more than she can go back D And if you said you didn't miss it, you'd be lying
[Chorus]
C G C G When the way it was wasn't what it seemed D G Maybe you could trasde that freedom back for some of that naive C G D Em All the stars we hung above those small-town trees C D Maybe they can remind you, I bet they'd recognize you Em D C You think you moved on, but no one really does Em D C Just like no one tells you it'll be this tough, this tough
