[Intro]

C  G  C  G

 
C  G  C  G
C  G  C  G
C  G  C  G
 
 
[Verse]

        C           G  C  G
You're working too hard
           C          G  C  G
Or you're living too fast
      C          Em         
Hands over your eyes with a 
 D           C
foot on the gas
 
         C      G      C  G
And the best I can tell
     C           G     C  G
The crowd seems ashamed
    C             Em            
It sounds like a warning when 
      D             C
they call out your name
 
 
[Verse]

         C         G       C  G
The boy genius is grown now
          C          G    C  G
The competition got fierce
           C         Em       
And you'd rather be anywhere 
 D          C    G/B
other than here
 
 
[Chorus]

           Am      Em       Am
But it can get so much worse
       G         C
And I reckon it will
       C        G   C  G  C  G  C  G
In Vestaviaaaa Hills
 
 
[Verse]

      C           G      C  G
Last night was a long one
            C          G     C  G
You made a lot of new friends
          C           Em        D   
And your band was on fire right up 
          C
'til the end
 
           C             G    C    G
You met a girl from the subuuuurbs
         C              G  C  G
But you missed all the cues
       C           Em       
I bet you don't remember me 
 D         C
tying your shoes
 
 
[Verse]

         C         G       C  G
The boy genius is grown now
               C           G  C  G
And you're an angry young man
         C         Em          
Well, I won't be around when 
     D          C  G/B
you die in the van
 
 
[Chorus]

       Am
I got kids of my own
     G         C
Not much of a will
       C     G   C  G  C  G  C  G
In Vestavia Hills
 
 
[Instrumental]

G  Am  Am  Em
Em  Am  Am  
Em  D  Am
Am  Em  Em  
D  D  D
 
 
[Verse]

      C         G      C  G
This run is my last one
         C       G      C  G
I gotta get off the road
           C           Em      
And gotta get my mind back in 
     Em     C
the family mode
 
       C            G       C  G
And I wish you the best, son
           C          G   C  G
I've seen worse do alright
           C             Em         
You're at war with your heart and 
        D           C
you're too weak to fight
 
 
[Verse]

         C         G       C  G
The boy genius is grown now
      C          G       C  G
Your dreams all came true
         C                Em         
And now you're left with nothing but 
 D        C  G/B
damage to do
 
 
[Chorus]

                Am
Well, I've got dreams of my own
        G         C
And my wife pays the bills
       C     G   C  G  C  G  C  G
In Vestavia Hills
 
    C   G    C   G  C  G  C  G
