I headed out to Nashville, couldn't wait to turn 18

I took a swing for the fence but landed somewhere in between

C                 G           E               Am A5
I never made the majors but I still play the game

Fmaj7             Dm         E                G
Every concert ticket I buy brings about more pain

I work the bars and weddings, nearly everyday

C                              E               Am
Doing nails at a beauty salon, just to make my pay
[Chorus]
Am              Em
I am my story, would you take a second look

Dm                           Am                Fmaj7  E Am
You put me in your chapter, just to sell your book

Am                    C
You sing my songs, to increase your fame

E                                      Dm         B11
Every time your record plays, it just erases my name

Am              Dm
I sell my soul, pieces at a time

C                  E                          Am  
I've got bills to pay or I'd keep them all as mine

In my high school yearbook they wrote most likely to succeed

Fmaj7              Dm            E            G
6 months of rent saved, I moved out to Tennessee

C                    G            E            Am A5

Fmaj7                 Dm                 E                   G
Countless demo tracks I've sent and they're yet to discover me

C                  G             E          Am A5
I finally sold my songs just to make ends meet

Fmaj7                Dm                 E             Am A5
I can't go back to Greenville without admitting the defeat.
[Chorus]
Am              Em
I am my story, would you take a second look

Dm                           Am                Fmaj7  E Am
You put me in your chapter, just to sell your book

I sell my soul, pieces at a time

C                  E                          Am  
I've got bills to pay or I'd keep them all as mine
