Intro: G Bm A (2x)

verse 1 

G                                                       
I know all the ghosts that walk these streets  
G                                                  
People die, babies cry, and never leave 
A                                                     G 
No one wants these gravel roads to end 
G 
There's a train every 2: 15  
Bm 
That always was and always gonna be  
A 
Daughters to mothers,  
Daughters to mothers,  
                                   G 
Daughters to mothers, again  


[Refrão]
D                                   G              D 
It's so hard to leave my hometown world  
D                G              D 
I try to be a hometown girl 
D 
But in a car  
A                                      G 
in the high school parking lot,  
I know I'm not.  

verse 2 

G                                       Bm 
In the crowd on graduation day  
G                                                           Bm 
You can see the ones that wish they got away  
A                                       G 
One on the hip, one on the way  
G                                                      Bm 
But way back here is branded on my heart  
G                                           Bm 
I wish so bad I could play the part  
A                                       G 
It's where I am in my glory days

D                                  G               D 
It's so hard to leave my hometown world  
D                G              D 
I try to be a hometown girl  
D 
But in a car  
A                                     G 
in the high school parking lot,  
I know I'm not.  

Bridge 

G 
It's holding on to me and all my doubts  
G 
Now it's when I stay or I get out  
A                             G 
There's a train every 2: 15

D              G                D

D 
But in a car  
A                                      G 
in the high school parking lot,  
A 
I know, just gotta go can't turn around, 
G 
I'm not.
