"Nashville CA / L.A. Tennessee" lyrics - TIM MCGRAW

[Verse 1: Tim McGraw]
I left Louisiana
For a fifty-thousand-watt antenna
On a sinner's prayer, three chords, and the truth
Golden state's got your name
Greyhound bus and a walk of fame
It's a hard lesson in what distance can do

[Chorus: Tim McGraw & Lori McKenna, Tim McGraw]
If God made the two cities closer, I'd be right beside you
But then where would the Grand Canyon be?
I'll meet you in Nashville, California or L.A., Tennessee

[Verse 2: Tim McGraw]
Dreamer's dreams are never done
Gypsy's song is never sung
Spit out the bones, say the hell with all the rest
Souls like ours always lookin' for
A way into love, a way out the door
Just keep that compass pointed east and west

[Chorus: Tim McGraw & Lori McKenna, Tim McGraw]
No place this cowboy heart won't go
Star-lined streets or old backroads
Broadway bars or the land of silver screens
So I'll meet you in Nashville, California or L.A., Tennessee

[Bridge: Tim McGraw]
I've never been a patient man
I've tried like hell to make amends
Two thousand miles and beautiful plans
Tell those western stars keep watchin' over
The City of Angels, I'm comin' for ya
The only way I know 'til I grow wings

[Verse 3: Tim McGraw]
I'll get in this old pickup truck
And I'll drive it west 'til the sun comes up
'Cause I love you and the way you love your dreams

[Chorus: Tim McGraw & Lori McKenna]
Just know I'd move these mountains for you, every grain of desert sand
And if you ever wanna settle down with me
We'll call it Nashville, California or L.A., Tennessee
Call it Nashville, California or L.A. Tennessee

[Outro: Tim McGraw & Lori McKenna, Tim McGraw]
Mm, where the dreamers go and the stars hang low
Oh, where the dreamers go and the stars hang low
Mm
