[Verse 1]
CSeparated only by the miles Fwe lived on
AmWe misbehaved a bit but wFe were having fun
CThose days were innocent and Fwe didn't mean no harm
AmNot much to do in town but aFct a little dumb
ICn my hometown, the main street runs Fhalf a mile long
And wAme don't have shopping malls or biFg lights always on
JCust a few families who wake uFp at the dawn
And Amspend their lives working on a Fdream of their own
[Pre-Chorus]
DmWell I've got bigger plans than meets the eyeG  
DmAnd you can't catch the fish if you don't trGy
[Chorus 1]
But I haven't seen youF, since we grCaduated high Gschool
So good to see Fyou are.....Am. doing very wellG  
Its hard to contiFnue, when the Amtimes they get so Gdown
We jusDmt made the best of what's arounGd
                F*                    C  
'cause nothing really changes in my hometown

I Cwas talking to Molly, about the Fnight of our first dance,
and AmI was so nervous thought I'd nevFer get the chance
BriCttany had a piece of me baFck when we were fifteen
Oh what AmI thought was love was neFver meant to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Its Dmnice to sit and talk about the pastG  
But DmI'm looking forward while the rest look Gback
