Dive Bar Dreamer

Am G   Em F   Am G   Em F

[Verse 1]
  Am      G
I turn my face towards the light
                  Em F
For a little While
                  Am
Hoping to soak it in
         G                         
Thinking maybe somehow, it’ll 
    Em   F
ignite a fire

                         Am
That burned out from the constant 
rejection
       G
You’re good but rejection she’s 
better


[Pre-Chorus]
Em        F
Just keep keepin on
       Am                       G 
But if it’s alright I’d like to 
           F
sing y’all a song


[Chorus]
        C        G              
About a dive bar dreamer in her 
Am7        F
dime store boots
        C           G             
She is a constant believer in 
   Am7             F
always stickin’ to her roots
              C             G     
She spends her days writing songs 
               Am            F
that the labels  don’t wanna hear
        C                        G
And she spends her nights playin 
            F
for tips and beer

        Am                G   
And you know her well cuz she’s 
                 F
standin’ right here
                 C       G     Am F
She’s a dive bar dreamer-er-er-er

A dive bar dreamer-----er-er


[Verse 2]
         G
I tell myself it’s all gonna be 
alright
C      F
  Rome wasn’t built in a day
Am                G              
You knew what was coming when you
            C
 chose this life
         F            Am
A lot of hurry up and wait
                   G
But I promise that your time is 
coming


[Pre-Chorus]
C         F
Just keep keepin on
Am                   G           
Until then I’m gonna sing y’all 
    F

[Bridge]
       Am  F
She’ll rise
C                         G
  Like the smoke in the neon lights
       Am  F
She’ll rise
C                         G
  Like every glass in the air 
tonight

       Am  F
She’ll rise
      C                       G
Rise above all her doubts and fears 
tonight
       F            G
She’ll rise, I will rise


[Chorus]
          C        G             
Cuz I’m a dive bar dreamer in my 
Am         F
