[Intro] [D] [Em] [G] [A]
[VERSE 1]
Never did fit in[D] [Em]
Always the one le[G]ft out [A]
Just the g[D]irl at the back
You neve[Em]r gave a damn ab[G]out [A]
Tough growing u[D]p [Em]
When they shoot you d[G]own [A]
But I kn[D]ew someday somew[Em]ay
It was a[G]ll about just getting [A]out
[PRE-CHORUS]
Then I tur[Em]ned eigh[G]teen
Said "I'm gon[D]na si[A]ng"
Packed my ba[Em]gs and they laughed
Said "yo[G]u'll never be an[D]ything" [A]
[CHORUS]
Well, talk o[D]f the town
That's wh[Em]at I am now
He[G]ar them whisperin[A]g about the dre[D]ams I have
Behi[Em]nd my back
I'[G]m just the gi[A]rl with her head in the clou[D]ds
Feet off the gr[Em]ound, I'm going u[G]p, no, I won't come dow[A]n
eM G
So I'll keep walking, you'll keep talking
I'[D]ll move on and st[A]ill be the talk of this town
[D] [Em] [G] [A] x2
[VERSE 2]
Well, the word got[D] back [Em]
And it wasn't s[G]o good [A]
The city sca[D]red me a little mo[Em]re
Than I thought it wo[G]uld [A]
They said "I told you [D]so" [Em]
"We knew it wouldn't[G] last" [A]
But I'm not cryi[D]ng to my mama
I'm d[Em]oing what I wanna
B[G]et you weren't expecting tha[A]t, yeah
[CHORUS]
Talk o[D]f the town
That's wh[Em]at I am now
He[G]ar them whisperin[A]g about the drea[D]ms I have
Behi[Em]nd my back
[G]I'm just the g[A]irl with her head in the cl[D]ouds
Feet off the grou[Em]nd, I'm going u[G]p, no, I won't come d[A]own
So I'l[Em]l keep walking, you'[G]ll keep talking
I'[D]ll move on and sti[A]ll be the talk of this town
[BRIDGE]
One day I mi[Em]ght be on your TV[G] screen
Sm[D]iling in your ma[A]gazine
The la[Em]st thing that you[G] ever thought you'd s[D]ee is m[A]e, yeah
