The Singer

• Bb

Randy Houser,  "The Singer"


(intro)
Bb    Eb


(verse)
              Bb
She loved the singer
    Eb
She loved the way he stood on stage and played
Eb                                Bb
And just poured out his heart and soul
Bb
She loved the dreamer
    Eb
The way the lights would hit his eyes
Eb                                   Bb
And shine just like a record made of gold
             Cm                 Dm
She couldn't count the time she stayed up all night
Eb
Scared to death and prayin'
Cm                Dm           Eb
Wondering if he'd ever make it home
              Bb     Dm                             Bb
She loved the singer,    she just couldn't live the song


              Bb
She loved the hero
     Eb
Even more than that, she loved the man without the mask
                   Bb
When no one was around
Bb
She let him lean on
    Eb
Her lovin' arms when he would call
Eb                                         Bb
He'd fall she'd pick him up off the ground
    Cm                Dm                     Eb
And in her dreams the face he sees ain't the one taken with a camera
Cm                     Dm             Eb 
It's the one after the mask was taken off
          Bb         Dm                            Bb
She loved the singer,   she just couldn't live the song


(chorus)
Eb        Ab              Eb               Bb 
Tryin' to hold him's like tryin' to hold a flame
        Eb          Ab       Eb                    Gm      F
She was always just one of a million screaming his name


(instrumental)
Bb      Eb


(verse)
              Bb
She loved the poet
                   Eb
The words straight from his heart tear you apart
Eb                                        Bb
Then start to make you fall right back in love
    Cm            Dm          Eb 
And every day the radio plays one familiar
Cm                     Dm         Eb
And it hits her just a little too strong
     Bb              Dm                             Bb
She loved the singer,    she just couldn't live the song


(chorus-out)
Eb        Ab              Eb               Bb 
Tryin' to hold him's like tryin' to hold a flame
        Eb          Ab       Eb                    Gm
She was always just one of a million screaming his name
              F     Cm  Dm  Eb
Screaming his name…
              Bb
She loved the singer, man she loved the dreamer
Bb                    Dm                            Bb
She loved the singer,    she just couldn't live the song.
