Chasing The Dream
Copyright 2003 JamesRAy Still

VSI
Daddy fell in love when he held her in his arms
His first love was his first guitar
She was standing all alone in a second hand store
She needed him but he knew he needed her more

Chorus
He was chasing the dream the only one he’s ever known
It’s taken him a long way from his home
Daddy’s ole guitar his only friend it seemed
But together they’d live the life chasing the dream

VSII
Smoky ole bars one night stands
For tips in a jar in a hillbilly band
Sleeping in his truck barely getting by
Paying those honky-tonk dues was a way of live

Repeat Chorus

VS3
Sold everything he had for a hundred dollar bill
Caught him a ride all the way to Nashville
Been singing his songs down on music row
And it was there that he learned it sure helps just who you know

VS4
And there it broke daddy’s heart in a second hand store
When he sold his dreams to feed a family of four
The owner told me he buys broken dreams
From dream chasing guitar pickers….just like me

Chorus
Now, I’m chasing the dream the only one I’ve ever known
And it’s taken me a long way from my home
This ole guitar my only friend it seems
But together we’ll live the life chasing the dream
Yes together we’ll live the life chasing the dream
