Intro 

D  Em  G  A 

                D     Em 
Never did fit in 
                 G      A 
Always the one left out 
          D 
Just the girl at the back 
        Em              G     A 
You never gave a damn about 
               D      Em 
Tough growing up 
                     G       A 
When they shoot you down 
        D               Em 
But I knew someday someway 
        G                     A 
It was all about just getting out 

          Em      G 
Then I turned eighteen 
             D    A 
Said "I'm gonna sing" 
            Em 
Packed my bags and they laughed 
        G               D        A 
Said "you'll never be anything" 

            D 
Well, talk of the town 
         Em 
That's what I am now 
  G                A              D 
Hear them whispering about the dreams I have 
    Em 
Behind my back 
  G            A                           D 
I'm just the girl with her head in the clouds 
               Em               G                      A 
Feet off the ground, I'm going up, no, I won't come down 
     Em                  G 
So I'll keep walking, you'll keep talking 
  D                A 
I'll move on and still be the talk of this town 

( D  Em  G  A ) 

                  D     Em 
Well, the word got back 
               G       A 
And it wasn't so good 
            D                 Em 
The city scared me a little more 
                    G       A 
Than I thought it would 
                      D     Em 
They said "I told you so" 
                    G        A 
"We knew it wouldn't last" 
                D 
But I'm not crying to my mama 
     Em 
I'm doing what I wanna 
 G                           A 
Bet you weren't expecting that, yeah
