Chords

[Verse 1]
C                                Am
There's so much goin' on in this town

F                                   G
To keep me busy, I've been runnin' around

C                     Am
Up and down all these avenues

F                              G
Doin' everything but thinkin' 'bout you

C                         Am
As long as I stay on 'em, I'm fine

F                            G
The city side of those city limit signs

C                          Am
You don't really cross my mind
[Chorus]
C                                 Am
But soon as I get out here on the outskirts

F                            G
I wish I was runnin' by your house first

C                               Am
Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south sure

F                          G
Shines like gold down these old

C                        Am
Round bale, river valley back roads

F                                G
Way back in the holler where the grass grows

C                           Am
God almighty, baby, we were that close

F                         G
To ditchin' this town and settlin' down

C               Am
Out here on the outskirts
[Verse 2]
C                       Am
If I'da had a lick of damn sense

F                             G
I'd be on the greener side of that fence

C                          Am
Little starter house we've finally outgrown

F                          G
Twelve-hundred feet we're 'bout to add on

C                          Am
Smilin' out there watchin' them

F                                     G
Big ol' yellow buckets 'bout to break ground

C                     Am
While you're shootin' all my baby names down
[Chorus]
C                                 Am
But soon as I get out here on the outskirts

F                            G
I wish I was runnin' by your house first

C                               Am
Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south sure

F                          G
Shines like gold down these old

C                        Am
Round bale, river valley back roads

F                                G
Way back in the holler where the grass grows

C                           Am
God almighty, baby, we were that close

F                         G
To ditchin' this town and settlin' down

C               Am
Out here on the outskirts
[Bridge]
 C                 Am
I'm over all these Saturday nights

F                            G
I miss the stars in your eyes
[Chorus]
C                            Am
We were gonna give up on the fast life

F                                G
Have a couple babies, raise 'em up right

C                              Am
Take 'em to the river, get 'em baptized

F                   G
Back in our day, if I'da just stayed

C                            Am
I wouldn't be livin' in this condo

F                            G
Hangin' out with Hailey from Toronto

C                           Am
God almighty, baby, we were that close

F                          G
To ditchin' uptown, puttin' roots down

C                Am
Out here on the outskirts
