D MajorD
Verse 1:
D MajorD
You don't know why, you can't make it stop
G+G
You were hooked with your daddy's hand-me-down flat top
D MajorD G+G
The first time that you made your first love cry
D MajorD
And the words you wrote were running from her eyes
G+G
Down on the paper, made you feel so alive
D MajorD G+G
So you packed up your pickup and crossed that Tennessee line
Chorus 1:
G+G
You're always searching for a little something different to say
B minorBm
In the Bible, from a woman who's standing on the stage
G+G D MajorD D/C# A augmentedA
You get told you fit in, you get told you don't belong
G+G
You drink too much in a smokey little bar downtown
B minorBm
Stumble home when it's time to throw in the towel
G+G D MajorD D/C# A augmentedA
Wake up in the morning, look out, and the sunlight hurts
B minorBm G+G
Find your old guitar, write down another verse
D MajorD G+G
In the land of a million songs
Verse 2:
D MajorD
Everybody's got a story that needs to be sold
G+G
And they pray someday they'll hang a little gold
D MajorD G+G
And ride back to their hometown with their head held high
D MajorD
On any given day, there's a dream, there's a chance
G+G
That lightning will strike at the end of a pen
D MajorD G+G
And all the leaving, and losing, will all be worth the fight
Chorus 2:
G+G
You're always searching for a little something different to say
B minorBm
In the Bible, from a woman who's standing on the stage
G+G D MajorD D/C# A augmentedA
You get told you fit in, you get told you don't belong
G+G
You take that loading dock job just to pay the rent
B minorBm
You learn a few things from them hard-working men
G+G D MajorD D/C# A augmentedA
You listen to 'em laugh and you listen to 'em curse
B minorBm G+G
You find your old guitar and write down another verse
In the land of a million songs
