verse 1
Am G F
Wipe the footprints off my dash
G Am
Tore up those sun-faded photographs
G F
Threw 'em in the wind, ya'll can have it back, I'm outta here
Am G F
I stuck my middle finger up in the sky
G Am
Flipped off that "ya'll come back" sign
G F G
Looked in the mirror one last time, and watched it disappear
Chorus 1
Am G F
It ain't nothin' but a rearview town
G Am
Broken hearts and rusted plows
G F
Roots ripped right up out of the ground
G
Never thought I'd ever leave it

It ain't nothin' what it used to be
G Am
Population minus me
G F
On the other side of that dust cloud
G Am G F G
Ain't nothin' but a rearview town

Too much of her to run into, and so much road to somewhere new
