about

Written in Fall 2015 in my hotel room during my visit to the wonderful city of Nashville.

lyrics

Nashville

Singing was the first thing that I did when I was small
Listened to the radio, the songs, I knew’em all
It made me feel good and made me feel strong
To sing along

Guitar was the next big thing when I was just six
Grandpa always sat with me and showed me all his licks
We dreamed of New York City, we dreamed of L.A.
But the place I longed the most for, that was Nashville, Tennessee

So finally the day had come when I packed all my stuff
Even though I knew that a musicians life is rough
I considered New York City, I considered L.A.
But the place I finally went to that was Nashville, Tennessee

Broken Dreams and unmet expectations
Life can be so hard on music row
But there is no way that I am leaving
Because music is the thing I am living for

So here I am and play a song for some tips in a jar
But, oh Lord, I love my life, don’t need to be a star
I could go to New York City, I could go to L.A.
But I know one day I’ll make it here in Nashville, Tennessee

I could go to New York City, I could go to L.A.
But I know one day I’ll make it here in Nashville, Tennessee
