(ver. 1)
Toby Keith

INTRO: D  A  G  A,  D  Bm  G  A

VERSE:

D              A   Bm             A          G            A
 Route 14, Box 308,  she said goodbye at the cattle-guard gate,
G                 A                       D       A
 Hopin' she would find her a place in the world
          D                A                 
 With her mind made up and tears in her eyes,  
Bm          A        G         A 
 she almost made her daddy cry
           G               A                       D
 he said, "Don't forget to call when you get there girl."

PRE-CHORUS:
Bm                           G                D    
 Drivin' on that 2-lane road hopin' she might find
Bm                                      G             A      
 A whole lot more waiting up ahead than what she left behind

CHORUS:
         D  A       G    A     D          A           G         A
 Moving' up-stairs, down-town, life's too short to be hanging a-round
D       A          G            A          Bm    A
 She's 18 and it's time she got out of the woods
G                  A7                        D A G A
 She's gettin' out while the gettin's good


VERSE:

D                     A                Bm      A          G           A
 All bills paid and a room with a view,  she's unpacked a dish or two
G                 A               D     A
 She just got her phone turned on today
           D                     A             
 There's a big ol' world waitin' just outside 
    Bm             A           G   
 as  she's thumbin through the classifides,
G                    A             D
 lookin' for work at any old job's okay


PRE-CHORUS:

Bm                                   G                D         
 Drivin' on that cross-town freeway, hopin' she might find
Bm                                      G             A
 A whole lot more waitin' up ahead than what she left behind  

CHORUS:
         D  A       G    A     D          A           G         A
 Moving' up-stairs, down-town, life's too short to be hanging a-round
D       A          G            A          Bm    A
 She's 18 and it's time she got out of the woods
G                  A7                        D A G A
 She's gettin' out while the gettin's good

VERSE:

         D                   A                
 And she lost her job at the grocery store 
         Bm         A               G     A
 and the  wolf came knocking at the door
G                     A              D      
 red notice said they turned off her telephone
D                         A            Bm            A            G 
 There's nothing left for her to do so  she's packed up a thing or two,
G                   A                D    
Loaded her car down now she's headed home

PRE-CHORUS:

Bm                           G                D    
 Drivin' on that 2-lane road hopin' she might find
Bm                                      G             A
 A whole lot more waiting up ahead than what she left behind

CHORUS 2:
         D  A       G    A     D          A           G         A
 Moving' up-stairs, down-town, life's too short to be hanging a-round
D       A          G            A          Bm    A
 She's 18 and it's time she got back to the woods
G                  A7                        D  A  G  A   D -FADE
 She's gettin' out while the gettin's good
