D G
You grew up in this country town
Eb
I'm stuck out here it's been forever
D G
Where doing nothing is allowed
Eb F
And all my friends just say whatever
D
Once you're here
G
You're here to stay
Eb
Your life is made up, got no say (I never ever see the light of day)
D
You're so convincing
G
You talk a lot
Eb F
About how this is all you got
[Pre-Chorus]
C Bb F
You don't remember times long ago
G
'cause sooner or later, time gave them up
Bb F Ab G
Sooner or later
[Chorus]
C
Now go where you want (Why don't you?)
Em
Stay where you may (Get going!)
F
My friends got a house (Go stay there!)
Ab G
so you don't have to pay (Might like it)
C
Well its all adding up (Why don't you?)
Em
Tomorrow's the same (Get going!)
F
You just gotta jump (Just cuz ya)
Ab G
if you want it to change
[Verse]
D G
To me that's crazy or just lazy
Eb
At least I'm getting money for the rent
D G
Your whole life saying one day maybe
Eb F D
I had my chance to go I never went
D G
'Cause I know you want to get on up
Eb
And not go sit back and just wait for luck (It doesn't really matter anyway)
D
It's not so easy
G
To take the risk
Eb F
But it's better than living a life you miss
[Pre-Chorus]
C Bb F
You don't remember times long ago
G
'cause sooner or later, time gave them up
Bb F Ab G
Sooner or later
[Chorus]

Stay where you may (Get going!)

My friends got a house (Go stay there!)
