C                      F
I'm just the opener, no one came to see me
               C                     G
Singing all my songs and nobody know em
             C                      F
I'm just the opener, handing out my CDs
                C                       G
Standing by the table if they want a photo
                  C
Yeah, and I'm the first on stage
    F
But they don't know my name
      C                         G
These next few songs will be my 15 of fame
        C       F              C      F
I'm the opener, yeah, just the opener


[Verse 1]
C                       F
Tour's good, it's going good so far
        C                      G
I don't get a green room, so I changed in my car
     C                      F
Yeah, I got my, my favorite songs on my setlist
C                          G
But I can't get none of my homies on the guest list
C                       F
But fuck it they gas me up and call me famous
C                         G
Girls at the bar probably don't know what my name is
C                          F
But I ain't even trippin', you know I find it funny
         C                               G
'Cause I bought a bunch of drugs with my merch money

[Pre-Chorus]
             C                           F
I'm just the opener, yeah that's what I am
                   Am                     G
And I just came to sing, maybe make a new fan
                      C                         F
I know that you don't care, yeah I know where I stand
                     Am                        G
But I appreciate the love, would you give me a chance

[Chorus]
             C                      F
I'm just the opener, no one came to see me
               C                     G
Singing all my songs and nobody know em
             C                      F
I'm just the opener, handing out my CDs
                C                       G
Standing by the table if they want a photo
                  C
Yeah, and I'm the first on stage
    F
But they don't know my name
      C                         G
These next few songs will be my 15 of fame
        C       F              C      F
I'm the opener, yeah, just the opener


[Verse 2]
C          F
Hell no, I didn't get a soundcheck
C                G
Yeah, don't even know what time my set's at
C                    F
Yeah, but that's all part of the biz
              C                         G
Well, if your asking me, that shit just don't make sense
           C                        F
Sleep at a Red Roof Inn, yeah, they nice
                   C                     G
My homies shared a bed, so it's half the price
             C                       F
At least the venue gave me money for food
                       C                            G
But what I do, I just skip the meal and bought more booze

[Pre-Chorus]

                     C                          F
Because I'm just the opener, yeah that's what I am
                 Am                        G
She only hit the show 'cause she knows the band
                 C                     F
She stand at the back like she isn't a fan
                              Am
But knows the words, gots the merch
                  G
I just don't understand


[Chorus]
             C                      F
I'm just the opener, no one came to see me
               C                     G
Singing all my songs and nobody know em
             C                      F
I'm just the opener, handing out my CDs
                C                       G
Standing by the table if they want a photo
                  C
Yeah, and I'm the first on stage
    F
But they don't know my name
      C                         G

[Otro]
                            C
Yeah, but I'm more than the opener
             F
More than my CD
                Am                            G
More than these lights, I just want people to see me
               C
I know I ain't made it yet
               F
But I know you won't forget
          Am                   G
The first time that you saw me tonight
                C                  F
Yeah, I was the first on stage but they didn't know my name
