[Intro]
Gm    Em Gm
 
 
[Verse 1]
Gm
She couldn’t wait to go to college
Gm
Get away from her mom and dad
Gm
She couldn’t wait to yell “Go Cowboys!”
Gm
All dressed up in orange and black
D            Gm
She couldn’t wait to buy a fake from Kansas
Gm
Spend her money on weed and beer
Gm
Get fucked up for graduation
Gm
It’s the same shit every year
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
               Eb                 D
And it must be nice to leave this place
          Gm                        F
Put it in gear and leave it in this past
           Eb               D
It must be nice to watch it fade
         Gm               F
You know if you ever come back it’ll still be
 
 
[Chorus]
Bb                        F
Kids getting drunk on the strip
            Gm                Eb
Acting like local boys don’t exists
             Bb                 F                   C
Still be the same, cause nobody bothers, that’s the problem
          Gm     Cm7
With Stillwater
 
 
[Verse 2]
        Gm
And the next class is already enrolled
Gm
They show up when the summer ends
Gm
You know it ain't too bad when she goes
Gm
Back to Texas with her fake friends
Gm
‘Cause they made Perkins Road a little wider this year
Gm
Just to make it easier to get the hell outta here
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
               Eb                 D
And it must be nice to leave this place
          Gm                        F
Put it in gear and leave it in this past
           Eb               D
It must be nice to watch it fade
         Gm               F
You know if you ever come back it’ll still be
 
 
[Chorus]
Bb                        F
Kids getting drunk on the strip
            Gm                Eb
Acting like local boys don’t exists
                   Bb                 F                   C
It’ll still be the same, cause nobody bothers, that’s the problem
         Eb                           F
It’s the best four years of her life ‘til they’re gone
D      Gm                 F                   C
But to me she wrecked the one place that, well I call home
 
 
[Bridge]
               Eb                 D
And it must be nice to leave this place
          Gm                        F
Put it in gear and leave it in this past
           Eb               D
It must be nice to watch it fade
         Gm               F
You know if you ever come back it’ll still be
 
 
[Chorus]
Bb                        F
Kids getting drunk on the strip
            Gm                Eb
Acting like local boys don’t exists
                   Bb                 F                   C
It’ll still be the same, cause nobody bothers, that’s the problem
               Bb                       F
It’ll still be me, getting drunk on the strip
                 Gm            Eb
Acting like your memory don't exist
                   Bb                    F                    C
It’ll still be the same, cause you never bothered, that’s the problem
          Gm
