Intro

    

Verse 1

I was dead set on leaving since I was fifteen
And girls were mean in high school
So, I swore off all of Florida, I had never been more sure of
Getting out and looking so cool

Pre-Chorus

But big city dreams look better on TV
And I remember pulling out her drive and Mama sayin' to me

Chorus 1

N.C. G D/F#
"If you ever miss the live oaks or seein' stars up in the sky
If you ever need a minute just to pause and clear your mind
Then the light is on, the sheets are clean, there's pink wine in the fridge
Whеn the world just gets too big
You can always come back, kid" 

Verse 2

I guеss stayin' there felt like settling
And I was scared of bein' irrelevant
Now, that's exactly what I wrestle with
In every Nashville room I walk into
I rolled my eyes when she said I'd miss it
Told her I needed somethin' different
Now I thank God every time she calls
Sayin', "Baby, you can visit"

Chorus 2

N.C. G D/F#
"If you ever miss the live oaks or seein' stars up in the sky
If you ever need a minute just to pause and clear your mind
Then the light is on, the sheets are clean, there's pink wine in the fridge
Whеn the world just gets too big
You can always come back, kid..." 
Oh, oh oh...  

Bridge

Come back to the town you were raised in
Those back street woods you played in
Never thought pulling up to her house would be my favorite "I made it"

Chorus 3

N.C. G D
'Cause sometimes I miss the live oaks or seeing stars up in the sky
And man, it's been a minute since I've stopped to clear my mind
And the light is on, the sheets are clean, and she's smiling waving me in
When the world just gets too.. big
You can always come back, kid

Outro

Come back, kid
