i know you’re not scared of anything at all
don’t know if snow white’s house is near or far away
but i know i had the Best day with you today

i’m thirteen now and don’t know how my friends could be so mean
i come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
and we drive and drive untiL we found a town far enough away
and wE talk and window shop till i forgot all their nameS

i don’t know who i’m gonna talk to now at School

but i know i’m lAughing on the car ride home with you
don’t know how long it’s goNna take to feel ok
but i know i had the best day with you today

i have an excellent father

his strength is making me stronger
goD smiles on my little brother
inside and out he’s better than i am

i gRew up in a pretty house and i had space to run

and i had the bEst days with you

there is a video i found from bAck when i was three

you set up a paint Set in the kitchen and you’re talking to me
it’s the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dWarfs
daddy’s smart and you’re the prettiest lady In the whole wide world

now i know why all the trees change in the Fall

i know you were on my side even when i was wrong
and i love you for giving me your eyes
sTaying back and watching me shine and i didn’t know if you knew
so i’m taking this chance to say that i had the best day with you today

i Look around, turn the radio down
he says baby is something wrong?
i say nothIng i was just thinking how we don’t haVe a song
and hE says…

chorus
our song is the slamming screen door,
sneakin’ out late, tappIng on your wiNdow
when we’re on the phone and you talk real slow
cause it’s Late and your mama don’t know
our song is the way you laugh
the first date “man, i didn’t kiss her, but i should have”
and when i gOt home …before i said amen
asking god if he could play it again

i was walking up the front porch steps after eVerything that day
had gone all wrong and bEen trampled on
and lost and thrown away
got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin’ bed
i almost didn’t notice all the roses
and the note that said…

cause our song is the slamming screen door

sneaking out late, tapping on his window
when we’re on the phone and he talks real slow
cause it’s late and his mama don’t know
our song is the way he laughs
the first date “man, i didn’t kiss him, and i could have”
and when i got home, before i said amen
asking god if he could play it again

i’ve heard every album, listened to the radio

waited for something to come along
that was as good as our song…

repeat chorus

i was riding shotgun with my hair undone

in the front seat of his car
i grabbed a pen and an old napkin
and i… wrote down our song

i wonder if he knows he’s alL i think about at night

chorus
he’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
the onLy thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
he’s the song in the car i keep singing, don’t know why i do

drew walks by me, can he tell that i caN’t breathe?

and thEre he goes, so perfectly
the kind of flawless i wish i could be
she’d better hold him tight, give him all her loVe
look in those bEautiful eyes and know she’s lucky cause

repeat chorus

so i dRive home alone, as i turn out the light

i'll put his picture down and maybe
get some sleep tonight

 you should’ve said no, you should’ve gone home
written by Taylor Swift

you should’ve thought twice before you let it all go

it's strange to think the songs we used to sing
the smiles, the flowers, everything… is gone
yesterday i found out about you
even now just looking at you… feels wrong
you say that you'd take it all back, given one chance
it was a moment of weakness and you said yes…
chorus
you should've said no, you Should've gone home
you should've thought twice before you let it All go
you should've known that word, bout what you did with her
would get back to Me…
and i Should've been there, in the bAck of your Mind
i Shouldn't be Asking Myself why
you shouldn't be begging for forgivenesS At My feet…
you should've Said no, baby And you Might still have me
you can see that i've been crying
and baby you know all the right things… to say
but do you honestly expect me to believe
we could ever be the same…
you say that the past is the past, you need one chance
it waS A Moment of weakness and you said yes…
repeat chorus
i can't resist… before you go, tell me this
was it worth it…

This album is called “FEARLESS”, and I guess I’d like to clarify why we chose that as the title. To me, “FEARLESS” is not the
absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots of
them. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. FEARLESS is falling madly in love again,
even though you’ve been hurt before. FEARLESS is walking into your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. FEARLESS is
getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again…even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’s
FEARLESS to have faith that someday things will change. FEARLESS is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who
only hurts you, even if you can’t breathe without them. I think it’s FEARLESS to fall for your best friend, even though he’s in love with
someone else. And when someone apologizes to you enough times for things they’ll never stop doing, I think it’s FEARLESS to stop
believing them. It’s FEARLESS to say “you’re NOT sorry”, and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think is
FEARLESS. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is FEARLESS. Letting go is FEARLESS. Then, moving
on and being alright…That’s FEARLESS too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in
love stories and prince charmings and happily ever after. That’s why I write these songs. Because I think love is FEARLESS.
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU
I want to thank my family. Austin, thank you for understanding all of this and never getting frustrated. I love you with all my heart and I’m
so proud of you. Mom, you’re my best friend and your laugh keeps me sane. Dad, thank you for your help selling t-shirts and playing the
role of “proud dad” 24/7. Nathan, my brilliant producer, thank you for your intuition. Thank you for your talent, I’m lucky to have you. Liz
Rose, you’ve never stopped standing by me. To my wonderful little record label that has grown quite a bit since the days of no furniture,
fresh paint, and 12 employees…Thank you. I’ll never forget the days of sitting on the floor, putting cds into envelopes to send “Tim
McGraw” out to radio. Scott Borchetta, thank you for believing in me since I was 14 and still trying to straighten my hair. You’re family.
Robert Allen, thank you for all of your hard work on the road and your lovely British accent. To my promotions team, thank you for all the
number one singles! Jayme Austin, Mandy McCormack, Jeff Davis, Erik Powell, Larry Hughes, and Jack Purcell. Also, Andrew Kautz, John
Zarling, Allison Jones, Whitney Sutton, and everyone at the Big Machine. Thank you to Monte Lipman, Joel Klaiman, and everyone at
Universal! I love you Emily Evans. Jason Hutcheson, thank you for looking out for me. Sandi Spika, thank you for your pretty dresses and
glam assistance. Lorrie Turk, thank you for your awesome make up skills and wonderful laugh. Paula Erickson, you’re an amazing publicist
and anyone would be lucky to be your client. ;-) You’re the best publicist EVER. Claudine Ottinger, thanks for all the tour press! Kelly Rich,
you’re wonderful. Duane Clark, thanks for helping me learn the business end of things. Mike Milom, thank you for endlessly combing
through my contracts. Crazy lawyers…Troy Tomlinson at Sony/ATV Publishing, you make me happy. Greg Oswald (You’re incredible), Dave
Wirchtshafter (You get it done basically you’re awesome), Jason Trawick (You’re hilarious and awesome), and all my friends at William
Morris. Thank you to country radio. I remember riding in the back of a Taurus on radio tour, and meeting you all for the first time. Look
at what you’ve done for me! Thank you to CMT, GAC, and MTV. Colbie, thank you for lending your angelic voice to this album. It’s an honor
to have you as a co-writer and friend. Abigail, distance has never held us back and it won’t now that you’re at college. Best friends. That
will never change. Kellie Pickler, you’re the sister I never had. To my band, “The Agency”, you are family. Caitlin Evanson, Paul Sidoti, Grant
Mickelson, Al Wilson, Amos Heller, Ben Clark…Thank you for dressing up in crazy costumes because you know it makes me laugh. Thank
you to the people with the hard jobs — My crew and bus drivers. But most of all, thank you to the fans. I’m nothing without you. Nothing.
I’ll never forget that. I want to thank you for giving me this life, from the bottom of my heart. With everything I have and everything I am,
I thank you. I’m nothing without the people who believed in me and my music enough to go out and buy a copy of the first CD…or the people
who bought tickets to see me in concert. So the final thank you goes out to you. Fans are the reason I even have a second album coming
out. I love you. Thank you for all you do. Endlessly. I’ll always thank you, and I thank God every day for putting you in my life. And to the
boys who inspired this album, you had fair warning. FEARLESSLY, LOVELOVELOVE -T-
