verse 1  
D  
I can see her in that water  
A  
Church dress hung up in a tree  
Bm                          A                    G  
Laughin splashin flirtin, teasin' me  
D  
That afternoon of secrets  
A  
Swimming naked in a pool of dreams  
Bm  
Last high school summer dripping  
A                            G  
dry by Sycamore Creek  

Pre-Chorus  
E  
She kissed me one last time  
A  
Headin' home  
E  
And I'm still haunted by what she said  
                A  
When I'm alone  

              D  
She said you got a chance to be  
A  
Free of all these small town strings  
Bm  
That tie the rest of us down  
G  
She said boy quit your hanging around  
D  
Take that guitar and run  
A  
Faster than the setting sun  
Bm                                   A  
You can write a song later about my  
G  
memory  
E  
You can always come back  
                           A  
You can always come back  
                    D  
To Sycamore Creek  

verse 2  
D  
Well the guitar made the magic  
A  
And I just hung on for the ride  
Bm                                 A  
I walked amongst giants played  
                         G  
with legends side by side  
D  
She came to see me in New Orleans  
A  
And on a tour bus after the show  
Bm                                      A  
I kissed goodbye to the one I never  
G  
shoulda let go  

D  
She said you got a chance to be  
A  
So wild on those guitar strings  
Bm  
Stage lights in every town  
G  
So head up when you're hanging around  
D  
Take that guitar and run  
A  
Faster than the setting sun  
Bm                                                A  
You can write a song later about my  
G  
memory  
E  
You can always come back  
                                  A  
You can always come back  
           D  
To Sycamore Creek  

verse 3  
D  
Well I knew she'd gotten married.  
A  
And I always forget the guy's name  
Bm                                   A  
But he played tight end the year  
                     G  
that we won district  
D  
It got bad and it got ugly  
A  
Through tears one night she called  
Bm                                      A  
I drove ten hours to the water  
G  
I couldn't resist it  

D  
I said girl you got a chance to be  
A  
Free of all these small town strings  
Bm  
Cut the ties that keep you down  
G  
I said girl quit your hanging around  
D  
Take this money and run  
A  
Faster than the setting sun  
Bm                                   A  
She soaked my shirt crying over  
G  
memories  
E  
She said don't ever come back  
                  A  
No never come back  
D
