[Verse 1]
                                 G          D
She packed her bags and left for Hollywood
                  G               D
To be the star I knew she could
                         G                D
She's been saving up for quite some time
                      G             A
Workin' down at that Five and Dime
                             Bm         A
We said goodbye on a warm spring night
                                      G          A
I just stood there and watched those fading taillights

[Chorus]
              D
'Cause you can hold your own
   G
Against anybody I know
   D            Bm           A
And stand right up to any man
            D
And it's not that I'm afraid
           G
You won't come back to me some day
         D          A                 D
It's just will this life be as grand?

[Verse 2]
                              G           D
I heard she found a place and settled in
                     G                 A
Found some work and made some friends
                                   Bm          A
And well there ain't much changed 'round here
                       G               A
I just drive my truck down to gеt some beer

[Chorus]
              D
'Cause you can hold your own
   G
Against anybody I know
   D            Bm           A
And stand right up to any man
            D
And it's not that I'm afraid
           G
You won't come back to me some day
         D          A                 D
It's just will this life be as grand?

[Bridge]
                           D          G
And if you need a place to hide away
                           D             A
If those city dreams ever start to fray
                        G              D
And if the busy sounds ever bring you down
             A                  D
You can find me in a small town

                           G            D
And girl I really do wish you the best
                          G         A
And I hope you find your happiness
                          Bm       A
And if you ever change your mind
                                G            A
You'll find that I been waiting here all the time

[Chorus]
              D
'Cause you can hold your own
   G
Against anybody I know
   D            Bm           A
And stand right up to any man
            D
And it's not that I'm afraid
           G
You won't come back to me some day
         D          A                 D
It's just will this life be as grand?

[Outro]
             D           A                D
And it's just will this life be as grand?
