Famous In A Small Town Tab

by Miranda Lambert


In the video Miranda plays this with a Capo on the 4th fret.

Intro - G
                        
They say life is so much sweeter
                             
through the telephoto lens of fame
                                
around here you get just as much attention
                                   
cheerin' at the high school football game
                     
I dreamed of going to Nashville
                               
Put my money down and placed my bet
                                    
But I just got the first buck of the season
                                      
I made the front page of the Turnertown Gazette
                                             
Every last one, route one, rural hearts got a story to tell
         
Every grandma, in law, ex girlfriend
                                
Maybe knows us just a little too well
               
Whether you're late for church or you're stuck in jail
                   
Hey words gonna get around
                         
Everybody dies famous in a small town

Tyler and Casey broke up
It ended pretty quietly
We heard he was caught red-handed with her mama
That's just what they let us all believe

Repeat Chorus

                    
Baby who needs their faces in a magazine
                     
Me and you we've been stars of the town since we were 17

Let's go on down to the quick stop
Wear your yellow shades
And I'll put on my tight jeans
And we'll just spend the weekend burnin' rubber
And we'll let em point and stare distantly

Repeat Chorus
