D#m   C#                    B    F#
My buddy Brandon holds the record

For single-season touchdown throws
D#m          C#                 B           F#
And good ol' Johnny, he's the life of every party
           D#m            C#                 B  F#
It's like cheers the know him everywhere he goes

Chorus:
               D#m    C#                       B
I've got some famous friends, you've probably never
 F#
heard of
            D#m         C#                   B
But back in Rutherford County, our crowd is second
   F#
to none
              D#m        C#               B
You might not know them here in this big city
      F#
we're in
           D#m     C#
But when I go back home, I've got some
 B       F#
famous friends
       D#m C# B  F#
Yeah I do

My buddy Jason, he's the sheriff
He'll flash his lights, but let me go
My boy Randy, he's a preacher
My girl Megan, she's been teacher of the year
I swear for five years in a row

Chorus:
I've got some famous friends you've probably
never heard of
But back in Hamilton County, our crowd is
second to none
You might not know 'em here in this big
city we're in
But when I go back home, I've got some
 famous friends
Yeah, I do

I got friends in high places, on these
small town roads
'Cause 'round here, it's all about
the people that you know

Chorus:
And I've got some famous friends you've
probably never heard of
But back in Davidson County,
our crowd is second to none
You might not know 'em here in
this big city we're in
But when I go back home,
I've got some famous friends
Yeah, I do

(Ooh) Yeah, I do
Might not know 'em here in this big city we're in
But when I go back home,
I've got some famous friends, yeah
I've got some famous friends
(I've got some famous friends)
Yeah
