Small Pond Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I know [Am]where[C] y[F]ou w[C]ere raised,
a little doubt on my mind
[G]And boy so was
I, [Am]so you know that there ain't
nothin' wrong with that
[F]But you're king of a small [C]town,
holdin' [G]on as long as you can
I tried to be pa[C]tient, tried to understand
[G]I drove myself c[Am]razy waiting
on a boy to become a man
[F]And man, that set me [C]back,
I ain't [G]doing that again
So you can keep the [F]high school,
the foot[C]ball stands
The [Am]let terman jacket,
class ring [G]on your hand
The [F]shotgun beers and the [C]hell you raised
The [Am]same three stories
about your [G]glory days
But remem[Am]ber when everyone a[G]round
you is grow[C]ing up and moving [F]on
You only get so [G]big in a small
[Am]pond[C][F][C]
When you see a star, do you make a wish?
[G]Or are you so [Am]caught up in always
being the bigger fish?
[F]What are you gonna [C]do when
the wa[G]ter around you runs dry?
Yes, I'll [C]be gone sailing the [G]seas
Yeah, I hope [Am]you think of the
ocean when you think of me
[F]Yeah, I'm gonna chase my [C]dreams
Yeah, [G]I'm gonna brave those tides
You can keep the [F]high school,
the foot[C]ball stands
The [Am]let terman jacket,
class ring [G]on your hand
The [F]shotgun beers and the [C]hell you raised
The [Am]same three stories
about your [G]glory days
But remem[Am]ber when everyone a[G]round you
Is grow[C]ing up and moving [F]on
You'll only get so [G]big
In a small [Am]pond[F][C][Am][C][F][G]
You can keep the high [F]school,
the foot[C]ball stands
Let [Am]a men's jacket class
ring [G]on your hand
The [F]shotgun beers and the hell [C]you raised
The [Am]same three stories about
your [G]glory days
But remem[Am]ber when everyone a[G]round you
Is grow[C]ing up and moving [F]on
Lonely kid so [G]big in a small [Am]pond[F][C]
In a small [Am]pond[C]
You
