[verse 1]

C           C/E         Fmaj7
I'm getting too used to this way of life
G(add9)             F/G         G  ( F/A G/B )
Fame is a baby, she rocks me at night
C            C/E          Fmaj7
Far from the cold and the brash city lights
G(add9)                  F/G         G   ( F/A G/B )
We purchase from sorrow a moment's respite

[chorus]
    Dm7           Em7

  D7           Fm         G
I know I would follow you a country
C    C/E   Fmaj7  Fm
mile...
      C            A7         D7            G

[verse 2]

C       C/E       Fmaj7
I was a backwater girl, home most nights
G(add9)               F/G         G   ( F/A G/B )
That was before I saw my name in lights
C           C/E          Fmaj7
Stardom and squalor were not dreams of mine
G(add9)                     F/G           G
But I've seen the Hollywood sign now, and how it ..

[chorus]
Dm7                  Em7
shines, but when you smile
  D7            Fm         G
I swear I would follow you a country
C   C/E    Fmaj7   Fm
mile...
         C       A7          D7          G
..Please save me before I do things that aren't worth my..
