Oh your reputation's so golden 
You're never lonely and you're never home 

I know you've been talking about leaving
You've lost all your feeling for 
this town 
Paint your nails and put on your lipstick 
You don't want to 
miss your ticket out 
Just because you graduate from school 
So high in 
the gene pool, that's your point of view 

* But when you're broken down 

And no one else is around 
You'll come running back to this town 
And 
I'll be there, yeah I'll be there 

** 'Cause I remember how we drank time 
together 
And how you used to say that the stars are forever 
And 
daydreamed about how to make your life better 
By leaving town, leaving town 


Pack your bags, your smokes in your pocket
You're wearing my locket 
around your neck 
Take a drag and wait for the Greyhound
The world is your 
playground and you want to win 

[Repeat * , **]

Nothing in life 
will ever come that easy 
Doesn't mean it has to be that hard 
I know you 
will find out who you are

[Repeat * , ** , **]
