Don't know how accurate this is...this sounds O.K. to me.... The key is in the vocal inflections... [Verse 1]
A
So your home town's bringing you down

       G              D                  A
Are ya drowing in the small talk and the chatter 

A
Or you gonna step into line like your daddy done

G                     D                   A 
Punching the time and climbing lifes long ladder 

A
You've been howling at the moon like a slack jaw fool 

    G                   D        A
And breaking every rule they can throw on 

A
But one of these days it's gonna be right soon 

      G                   D             A
You'll find your legs and go and you'll stay gone 
[Chorus]
Em        G                     D              A
Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow 

Em        G
Young man going to make a stand 

D                  C
You beg, steal you borrow 

C                  A
Ya beg ya steal ya borrow 
[Verse 2]
A
Well all the friends that you knew in school 

     G             D                 A
They used to be so cool and they just bore you 

A
Well look at them now, already pulling the plow 

   G                D               A
So quick to take to grain like some old mule
[Chorus]
Em        G                     D              A
Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow 

Em        G
Young man going to mak a stand 

D                 C
You beg, steal you borrow 

C                    A
You beg you steal you borrow 
[Bridge]
Em
Dreaming of the day 
You're gonna pack your bags
             A
Put the miles away 

Em
Oh, just grab your girl and go 
Where no one knows you
                      A           F#m G
What will all the old folks say? 
[Verse 3]
A
So the home town's bringing you down

A

G                    D                   A
Punching the time and climbing lifes long ladder 
[Chorus]
Em        G                     D               A
Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow 

Em         G
Young man going to make a stand 

D                 C
You beg, steal you borrow 

C                 A
You beg you steal you borrow
