Big Star (Live)

[Intro: Kenny Chesney]

This song is about a girl who had a dream and followed it

And I know from living in this town for so many years

That there's a lot of girls out there in the audience tonight

With a lot of dreams in their head

And this song goes out to you, you alright? Here we go

[Verse 1: Kenny Chesney]

She was aware of her insecurities as she took the stage

She was convinced if she got up there

That she'd be discovered someday

So she belted it, she hit the high notes fearlessly

Oh she melted them, as she brought them to their feet

[Chorus: Kenny Chesney]

She was a big star at Banana Joe's bar

Where she sang karaoke every night

She said if you work hard to get where you are

It feels good in the hot spotlight

She was a big star

[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]

She made the local cable shows

Where the camera fell in love with her face

After a couple of weekends

The groupies were crawling all over the place

She signed autographs like she was Garth Brooks in a skirt

And in the aftermath, that small time town was hers

She was a

[Chorus: Kenny Chesney & Taylor Swift]

Big star at Banana Joe's bar

Where she sang karaoke every night

She said if you work hard to get where you are

It feels good in the hot spotlight

She was a big star

[Bridge: Kenny Chesney]

She doesn't care anymore

That her high school girlfriends put her down

The only thought she entertains

Is where they are and where she is now

Everybody

[Verse 3: Taylor Swift]

Her old neighbors swear they're certain she slept her way to the top

She knows you don't get where you're going

Unless you got something they ain't got

[Pre-Chorus: Kenny Chesney & Taylor Swift]

So she sings tonight to 20,000 plus

And the young girls scream out loud for Miss Taylor Swift

Man that could be us, she was a

[Chorus: Kenny Chesney & Taylor Swift]

Big star at Banana Joe's bar

Where she sang karaoke every night

She said if you work hard to get where you are

It feels good in the hot spotlight

She was a big star

[Outro: Kenny Chesney & Taylor Swift]

Look who showed up

Happy birthday, Kenny Chesney

I love you, Nashville

We love you, thank you, Taylor
