Intro -x2-: E B A Verse: E I swear I don't know how I trusted A a Montero with the AC busted E B a couple bad demos on a burned CD A Would take me all the way to Tennessee E I showed up to the new apartment A First month's, last month's, two deposits E B Hadn't heard the sound of a door slam yet A Thank God I was an optimist Chorus: E I drove circles around this town A Tryna ride circles around this town B Tryna say something with meanin' A Somethin' worth singin' about E I've been kind and I've been ruthless A Yeah, I got here but the truth is B Thought when I'd hit it, it'd all look different A But I still got the pedal down E A Drivin' circles around this tow-ow-own Verse: E B So many times I thought about leaving A Got my ass kicked tryin' to compete with E Everybody else is ones that got away A Hung around long enough to catch a break E Couple hundred songs and the ones that finally worked A Was the one about a car and the one about a church -nc- That I wrote Chorus: E Drivin' circles around this town A Tryna ride circles around this town B Tryna say something with meanin' A Somethin' worth singin' about E I've been kind and I've been ruthless A Yeah, I got here but the truth is B Thought when I'd hit it, it'd all look different A But I still got the pedal down E A Drivin' circles around this tow-ow-own B A Drivin' circles around this tow-ow-own Hey ! Instrumental: E A B A Chorus: E I drove circles around this town A Tryna ride circles around this town B Tryna say something with meanin' A Somethin' worth singin' about E I've been kind and I've been ruthless A Yeah, I got here but the truth is B Thought when I'd hit it, it'd all look different A But I still got the pedal down -nc- I still get lost, I still get found E E B A Drivin' circles around this tow-ow-own E B A E Ah, yeah
