Miranda Lambert collaborated with hometown talents on Saturday night (Feb. 8) during her Wildcard Tour stop at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. Members of the Lindale High School choir from Lambert's East Texas hometown helped the country music star add more emotion to the CMA, AMA and Grammy award nominated song "Tin Man."
Lambert's hometown high school choir appeared during an acoustic portion of Lambert's set. Per local reports, nearly two dozen students were invited to take part in a once in a lifetime opportunity and a full-circle moment for a country star.
Footage making the rounds online shows the Nashville star rehearsing backstage with several of her alma mater's current students.

The Wildcard tour reconvenes Feb. 20 after a Valentine's Day break with a revolving cast of opening acts, including Parker McCollum, The Randy Rogers Band, LANCO and Cody Johnson. Remaining dates include postponed appearances in Salt Lake City, Utah and Denver, Colorado which got postponed by Lambert earlier this month due to a sore throat.
"Tin Man" Lyrics
Hey there, Mr. Tin Man
You don't know how lucky you are
You shouldn't spend your whole life wishin'
For something bound to fall apart
Everytime you're feeling empty
Better thank your lucky stars
If you ever felt one breakin'
You'd never want a heart
Hey there, Mr. Tin Man
You don't know how lucky you are
I've been on the road that you're on
It didn't get me very far
You ain't missin' nothin'
'Cause love is so damn hard
Take it from me darlin', you don't want a heart
Hey there, Mr. Tin Man
I'm glad we talked this out
You can take mine if you want it
It's in pieces now
By the way there, Mr. Tin Man
If you don't mind the scars
You give me your armor
And you can have my heart
