[Intro]

[Verse 1]

I'm twelve years into a ten year town

I'm too far in to turn around

Too old to go back to school

C G

Won't be much longer, I'll be old news

I thought I'd be a big star now

I'm twelve years into a ten year town

[Chorus]

Fifteen minutes of fame

C G

Somebody says your name on the TV

Or back of the CD

Waitin' tables another month

Waitin' on that break to come

G D

All it's ever done is break my heart

[Verse 2]

The new It Girl fresh off the bus

She cut right in front of the rest of us

I need longer lashes and a shorter dress

To be that overnight success

I thought this year I'd wear that crown

I'm twelve years into a ten year town

[Chorus]

Fifteen minutes of fame

Somebody says your name on the TV

Or back of the CD

Waitin' tables another month

Waitin' on that break to come

G D

All it's ever done is break my heart

[Bridge]

A7sus4/F

But I didn't come this far

To only go this far

C G D

[Verse 3]

Payin' dues don't pay the bills

Dreams come true and I think mine will

Lesser fools woulda given up

They don't go for broke like a dreamer does

Gotta get back up when you get knocked down

I'm twelve years into a ten year town

[Outro]

This next song could turn it all around

I'm twelve years into a ten year town
