Bm7                  G
Out there where the four-wheelers only
                   A
need 2 'cause you lean 'em
         Bm                  Bm7
And the Yeti ice don't quite melt
'fore you drink 'em
         G
And the Sunday morning words
Kinda hurt when they preach 'em
             Bm                Bm7
'Cause your Saturday got a bit wild
            G
Where your friends ain't blood
                   A
But the bond runs thicker
         Bm                Bm7     A
And the Chevrolets all got whip antennas
         G                                   A
And the long hard days end with six-o-clock dinners
Bm                            Bm7 Bm
I've been missing that for a while, damn

Chorus:
 G                         A
Yeah, you grow up just to get out
Bm                    Bm7         A
Think you won't ever think about that town
G
Once you're gone

But you're wrong

Now you're right there
Bm                 Bm7                  A
Wishing every back road would take you back where
G                                  A
Where them "hey y'all"s and them "hell yeah's"
Bm                 Bm7        A
Keep a small-town world slow spinning
 G
Take it from me

Yeah, the second you leave
         Bm              Bm7
All you gotta do is blink
            A
And you'll miss it

Out there where them Black Ice
pines hang on rearview mirrors
And the dirty river water turns a mason jar clear
And the grass is greener than them
John Deeres steerin'
In a field plowin' turn row miles
That way of life ain't goin' out of style, nah

Chorus:
Yeah, you grow up just to get out
Think you won't ever think about that town
Once you're gone, but you're wrong,
now you're right there
Wishin' every back road would take you back where
Where them "hey, y'alls" and them "hell yeahs"
Keep a small-town world slow-spinnin'
Take it from me, yeah, the second you leave
All you gotta do is blink and you'll miss it

 G                         A
Yeah, you grow up just to get out
Bm                                A
Think you won't ever think about that town

G
Once you're gone
But you're wrong
Now you're right there
Bm                                      A
Wishing every back road would take you back where
G                                  A
Where them "hey y'all"s and them "hell yeah's"
Bm                            A
Keep a small-town world slow spinning
 G
Take it from me
Yeah, the second you leave
         Bm
All you gotta do is blink
            A     G
And you'll miss iiit
   G  A Bm
Yeeeaaaahhh
                  A     G
Blink and you'll miss it
         A           Bm                      A  G
All you gotta do is blink and you'll miss it

G                 A
I-24's best-kept secret
Bm                                A
80 on the dash and you might not see it
G
I could use me a little two-lane treatment
Em
Where the hair pin turns into creek bends

Chorus:
Yeah, you grow up just to get out
Think you won't ever think about that town
Once you're gone, but you're wrong,
now you're right there
Wishin' every back road would take you back where
Where them "hey, y'alls" and them "hell yeahs"
Keep a small-town world slow-spinnin'
Take it from me, yeah, the second you leave
All you gotta do is blink and you'll miss it

Blink and you'll miss it
All you gotta do is blink and you'll miss it
