The Underdog (2015)
no capo
Intro: D x 2
(spoken)
D
Now this is a true story for the most part
That occurred on the top floor of this bigwig record executive's office in
Nashville, Tennessee
Now understand I'm not poking any fun or disrespecting anybody
God knows I love country music with all my heart and soul and I love the
Grand Ole Opry
But I do have a problem with someone who can't even play a D chord on a
guitar
Telling someone with a dream that they won't get far
So this song is dedicated to all those underdogs like me out there running
around
Don't get discouraged if you have a dream, don't be afraid to chase it down,
it's how it goes
Verse 1
D
He said, "Son, don't get offended by what I'm about to say
I can see you have a passion for the songs you write and play
But you lack what we all call commercial appeal
And you just don't have what it takes to make it here in Nashville"
Ouch...
D
Well my heart felt like a train wreck, but I wore a smile on my face
I said, "Thank you for your time, sir" put my guitar back in its case
Our little conversation was like a revelation, redirecting my dreams
Cause God knows I'd never sell my soul to rock 'n' roll or rap, or wear those
tight skinny jeans
Chorus
G A
And you know I'd rather sing my own songs than be a puppet on a string
Bm G
I'll wear what I want to wear, I'm gonna sing what I wanna sing
A Bm
Heaven knows all I need is my faith, my fans, my friends and my family
