Randy Houser, "The Singer"
(intro)
[Bb] [Eb]
(verse)
She loved the [Bb]singer
She [Eb]loved the way he stood on stage and played
[Eb]And just poured out his heart and [Bb]soul
[Bb]She loved the dreamer
The [Eb]way the lights would hit his eyes
[Eb]And shine just like a record made of [Bb]gold
She couldn't [Cm]count the time she [Dm]stayed up all night
[Eb]Scared to death and prayin'
[Cm]Wondering if he'd [Dm]ever make it [Eb]home
She loved the [Bb]singer,[Dm] she just couldn't live the [Bb]song
She loved the [Bb]hero
Even [Eb]more than that, she loved the man without the mask
When no one was aro[Bb]und
[Bb]She let him lean on
Her [Eb]lovin' arms when he would call
[Eb]He'd fall she'd pick him up off the ground[Bb]
And [Cm]in her dreams the [Dm]face he sees ain't the [Eb]one taken with a camera
[Cm]It's the one after the [Dm]mask was taken [Eb]off
She loved [Bb]the singer,[Dm] she just couldn't live the [Bb]song
(chorus)
[Eb]Tryin' to [Ab]hold him's like [Eb]tryin' to hold a [Bb]flame
She was [Eb]always just [Ab]one of a [Eb]million screaming his [Gm]name[F]
(instrumental)
[Bb] [Eb]
(verse)
She loved the [Bb]poet
The words straight [Eb]from his heart tear you apart
[Eb]Then start to make you fall right back in [Bb]love
And [Cm]every day the [Dm]radio plays [Eb]one familiar
[Cm]And it hits her just a [Dm]little too [Eb]strong
She l[Bb]oved the singer,[Dm] she just couldn't live the [Bb]song
(chorus-out)
[Eb]Tryin' to [Ab]hold him's like [Eb]tryin' to hold a [Bb]flame
She was [Eb]always just [Ab]one of a [Eb]million screaming his [Gm]name
Screaming his [F]name?[Cm][Dm][Eb]
She loved the [Bb]singer, man she loved the dreamer
[Bb]She loved the singer, [Dm] she just couldn't live the [Bb]song.
