Chords
[Verse]
G D/F# She had six strings and a suitcase full of dreams Em7 Cadd9 Wrote her life in melodies and movie-scene themes G D/F# Strumming through the silence, dancing in the rain Em7 Cadd9 Dsus4 Chasing every echo that called her by her name
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7 Em7 They said, “Settle down,” but she was wired to roam Cadd9 Dsus4 She built a song and called it home
[Chorus]
G She’s the girl with the guitar D/F# Lighting up the dark in a downtown bar Em7 Pouring out her heart in a smoky room Cadd9 Every note a spark, every chord a wound G She’s a storm in a Sunday dress D/F# A whispered word, a wild guess Em7 A firefly caught in a mason jar Cadd9 Dsus4 G She’s the girl with the guitar
[Verse 2]
G D/F# Played for the drifters, the lovers, the lost Em7 Cadd9 Turned her pain into gold, no matter the cost G D/F# She didn’t need saving or someone to steer Em7 Cadd9 Dsus4 Her truth was the rhythm that only she could hear
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7 Em7 Moonlit roads and motel nights Cadd9 Dsus4 She strummed her way through wrong and right
[Chorus]
G She’s the girl with the guitar D/F# Singing through the static of a beating heart Em7 Found a little grace in every scar Cadd9 Wrote her name in the strings of a falling star G She’s a flame in the open air D/F# A melody floating on a prayer Em7 No stage too small, no dream too far Cadd9 Dsus4 G She’s the girl with the guitar
[Bridge]
Am7 G/B Maybe someday they’ll sing her songs Cadd9 G In cities she’s never been Am7 G/B But the soul in those strings lives on Cadd9 Dsus4 Every time the chorus begins
[Final Chorus]
G She’s the girl with the guitar D/F# Wrote her life in a G and a Cadd9 bar Em7 Left behind pieces in every town Cadd9 But the music still brings her back around G A wanderer, a work of art D/F# Carving truth out of the dark Em7 She’ll always be, no matter how far Cadd9 Dsus4 G The girl with the guitar
