Verse
[C] [Em]
I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.
[Am] [G]
With a dream and my cardigan

Welcome to the land of fame excess,
[Am] [G]
Am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the cab,

This is all so crazy
[Am] [G]
Everybody seems so famous
Pre-Chorus
[C] [Em] [Am]
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick
[G]
Too much pressure and I'm nervous,
[C] [Em]
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
[Am] [G]
And a Jay-Z song was on
[Am] [G]

[C]
So I put my hands up
[Em] [Am]
They're playing my song,

And the butterflies fly away

I'm noddin' my head like yeah
[G]
I'm movin' my hips like yeah

Get to the club in my taxi cab
[Am] [G]
Everybody's looking at me now
[C] [Em]
Like "Who's that chick, that's rockin' kicks?
[Am] [G]
She gotta be from out of town"
[C] [Em] [Am]
So hard with my girls not around me
[G]
It's definitely not a Nashville party
[C] [Em] [Am]
'cause all I see are stilettos
[G]
I guess I never got the memo
