Leaving Looks Good On You

[Intro]
C   F
 
 
[Verse 1]
            C
You've been dodging potholes and "I love you's"
           F
Since your daddy got a job here, 2002
C                                    F
Big city dreamer with the small town blues
          C
Yeah, you caught my heart and everybody's eye
       F
At the karaoke bar singing "One Headlight"
C                                        F
Finished your drink, told me in the neon light
Am                       F
"I'm meant for more than this"
Am     F
And I agreed with a kiss
F
And said
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Run, run, baby
C
Out of this town
   Dm7
If California's calling, go and chase it down
             Am7
They can say it's cliché
          G                          F
You won't know until you go and find out
    C
So, run, run, baby
C
Nothing to lose
      Dm7
Don't get hung up on these hometown roots
             Am7                G                   F
Yeah, I hate to admit it but we both know that it's true
                      C
Leaving looks good on you
   Dm F
On you
   Am7
On you
G                     F
Leaving looks good on you
 
 
[Verse 2]
                 C
Yeah, you looked real good in the photos of us
        F
But you look so happy on a Greyhound bus
C
Window seat, waving at me
                   F
Through a cloud of dust
F
But it tore me up saying
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Run, run, baby
C
Out of this town
   Dm7
If California's calling, go and chase it down
             Am7
They can say it's cliché
          G                          F
You won't know until you go and find out
    C
So, run, run, baby
C
Nothing to lose
      Dm7
Don't get hung up on these hometown roots
             Am7                G                   F
Yeah, I hate to admit it but we both know that it's true
                      C
Leaving looks good on you
   Dm F
On you
F
Run, baby, run, run, baby
   Dm7
On you
                F
Run, baby, run, run, baby
   Am
On you
Am
Run, baby, run, run, baby
G                     F
Leaving looks good on you
 
 
[Interlude]
Am G F    Am G F
 
 
[Verse 3]
          G
Yeah, the hometown said that you're gonna go far
    F
And Hollywood said that you're gonna be a star
      G
And I know what I said in the karaoke bar
       F
But if you ever said you wanted back in my arms I'd say
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Run, run, baby
C
Out of that town
   F
If California ain't where you wanna settle down
             Am
They can say it's cliché
    G                                F
You won't know until you go and find out
    C
So, run, run, baby
C
Nothing to lose
          Dm
If you're still hung up on these hometown roots
         Am                      G         F
Show 'em all out there something I already knew
                      C
Leaving looks good on you
 
 
[Outro]
C
Run, baby, run, run, baby
C
On you
C
Run, baby, run, run, baby
   Am
On you
Am
Run, baby, run, run, baby
G                     F
Leaving looks good on you
F
Run, baby, run, run, baby
   C
On you
C
On you
   Am
On you
C                     F
Leaving looks good on you
