Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
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
