JOSH THOMPSON
A NAME IN THIS TOWN
WAY OUT HERE (2010)


D 	  	  	 A 	     G
I knocked out Buster Johnson on the playground after school;
D 	  	     A 	  	      G
I went from being a 3rd grade punk to 6th grade cool
A 	 D 	  	  	 A
Yeah I still hold the landspeed record
 	 G
Down county road 509
D 	  	  	   A
Judge Taylor said he was real impressed
 	  	 G
But wouldn`t wave the fine
A 	 D 	  	  	    A
Yeah I still got my picture on the bait shop wall
 	 G
With a 6 pound small mouth bass
D 	  	     A
I see that i`m still loved and hated
 	   G 	  	 A
On that overpass

(chorus)
    G 	      A 	  	   D
Yeah I got a name in this town
     G 	  	 A 	  	 D 	 A
Some good, some bad that i`ll never live down
G 	 A 	  	 D 	  	 Bm
Anywhere else i`m just a face in the crowd
   G 	     A 	  	 D
But I got a name in this town
    G       A             D
Yeah I got a name in this town


D 	  	  	  	   A
Might have to fight my way out of Lucy's
 	 G
When I show up tonight
A 	 D 	  	 A
Round here it seems old scores, old flames
 	 G
Man they never die
A 	  	     D 	  	  	     A
Then again it might just be a bunch of back-slappin'
      G
When I walk through the door
 	   D 	  	  	 A
Hear the same ol' stories that keep gettin' bigger
 	   G
Than they were before
   Bm 	  	  	 A 	  	  	 G
I packed my things and hitched my dreams to a shootin' star
  A 	 Bm 	  	  	  	 A
ANd if the world out there don't give a damn about me
    G 	  	  	  A
Or this guitar, it won't matter at all casue

(to chorus)

(chorus 2)

Yeah I got a name in this town
Been called a few things I shouldn't say right now
A little hard-headed and a little too proud
But I got a name in this town
Yeah I got a name in this town

(bridge)
D 	     A 	  	   G
Risk taker, heartbreaker, troublemaker

Man I got a name in this town
D 	      A 	  	   G
Big dreamer, dead ringer, not a bad singer

Yeah I got a name in this town
D 	 A 	     G
S.O.B, wild and free, you know me
    A 	  	  	   D 	 A 	 G
Man I got a name in this town
 	  	  	 D 	 A 	 G
I got a name in this town
 	  	  	 D 	 A 	 G
I got a name in this town
