Chords

[Verse 1]
C                               Em
I headed out to Nasheville, only 17

Am                                C            Em
I swung for the fence but landed somewhere in between

C                           Em
I never made the majors but I still play the game

Am                             C                 Em
Every concert ticket I buy brings about more pain

C                             Em
I work the bars and weddings, nearly everyday

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

Am                            C                 Em    E Am
You put me in your chapter, just to sell your book

Am                    C
You sing my songs, to increase your fame

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

Am              C
I sell my soul, pieces at a time

E                                                  Am
I've got bills to pay or I'd keep them all as mine
[Instrumental] Am C Em Am (X2) [Verse 2]
C                                     Em
In my high school yearbook they wrote most likely to succeed

Am                       C              Em
6 months of rent saved, I moved out to Tennessee

C                    Em
From living room to radio is harder than it seems

Am                                      C                   Em
Countless demo tracks I've sent and they're yet to discover me

C                              Em
I finally sold my songs just to make ends meet

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

Am                            C                 Em    E Am
You put me in your chapter, just to sell your book

Am                    C
You sing my songs, to increase your fame

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

Am              C
I sell my soul, pieces at a time

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