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.
