Verse 1:
D       G       D
She was fresh out of college
D       G       D
The first one in her family to go
Bm              G       D
and California seemed like heaven,
G               A               D
Pulaski, Tennessee was her home

Verse 2:
D               G               
She worked on losing her southern 
D
accent
D                              G 
and turned her back on her 
       D
Baptist ways
Bm              G               D
She bought some clothes that barely
D                       G
covered her fair skinned body,
A                       D
Went to Nashville and caught a plane

G                       D
Well the clouds rushed beneath her
Bm                      A
as the A  smog filled the air
G                       D       
And she smiled when the airlock 
Bm
opened
G               A               
The Pacific breeze blew through her 
D
hair

Verse 3:
D               G               
She thought about the boys from 
D
Alabama
D               G               
Who came into town every Friday 
D
night
Bm              G            
and drank beer out of big glass 
           D
quart bottles
G               A               
and left their trail of blood and 
D
tears behind
G                               D
She thought the men in California 
would be different
Bm                      A
She'd grown up watching them on her 
TV
G                       D       
But the men she came to know in 
Bm
California
G               A          
Left her longing for Pulaski, 
     D
Tennessee

Bridge:
Bm                              A
Good ideas always start with a full 
glass
G               D                
and just breathing here can make 
       A
a girl's nose bleed
G               D                
Dreams here live and die just 
       Bm
like a stray dog on a
G               A               D
dirt road somewhere in Tennessee

Verse 4:
D       G               D
The storefronts all filled up with 
eyeballs
D       G               D
As the policemen clear out the 
street
Bm                          
For a line of cars with their 
     G              D
headlights burning
G                      A   
Driving slow through Pulaski, 
                    D
Tennessee
