Intro: G5 - E5 - C5 - G5 - D5


VERSE 1

G5                                                  E5
In a town where what you know, Don't make you who you are
C5            G5                       D5
It all comes down the the car you drive
G5                           E5
Whether your a mustang, or a chevorlet man
C5            G5                  D5
If you don't know now you better start chosen' your side
G5                              E5
'Cus every friday night, I take her up town 
C5            G5                  D5
And line her up on South scale street
G5                              E5      
It looks like a parade, on Independence day
C5            G5                  D5
With your homecoming bride in the passenger seat

CHORUS
C5                      D5
We were too young to know, what this town had in store 
G5            D5                 C5
And we were too much in love to give a god damn 

And with expectations high, its always do or die

It seems like our fate's already been sealed
E5  D5  G5 
In reids--ville

VERSE 2
G5                  E5
When I turned 18, I sold that car
C5            G5            D5
Traded wheels for a wedding band
G5                  E5
A plymouth hunter green, big block with 3 on the tree
C5            G5            D5
And every nut and bolt turned by these 2 hands 
G5                  E5                        
It was a good start, then things just got so hard
C5            G5            D5
Where the hell'd we fall off track
G5                  E5
Now I work for her dad, and the pay it ain't half bad
C5            G5            D5
Keeps a roof on her head and the bank off my back


CHORUS

We were too young to know, what this town it had in store

And we were too much in love to give a god damn

And with expectations high, its always do or die

It seems like our fate's already been sealed

In reids--ville


VERSE 3


That girl of mine, how here eyes they used to shine

Like two rare stones set out on display

We were wild and we were young, and we could take on anyone

Now here eyes are darker than  a funeral serenade

I'd burn it down, every square inch of this town

Just to see one more smile on her face

When it comes my day to die, I wanna look God in the eyes

And ask him why he gave up on this place 


CHORUS


'Cus we were too young to know, what this town had in store

And we were too much in love to give a god damn

And with expectations high, its always do or die

It seems like our fates already been sealed

In reids--ville
