The Sound Program

Verse 1-
New York City makes dreams come true
What a perfect place for my musical debut
I hear the city never sleeps it just keeps rolling on through
So on to Gotham City on a super jet plane I flew

Verse 2
Anticipation and uncertainty, try to get the best of me
This challenge I'm about to face is laced with millions just like me
Who travel from the ends of end to get to where I want to be
Putting all they've got onto one hot shot to prove themselves relentlessly

Pre-chorus-
Rewind, cause I can't focus on these trivial things
Gotta keep my mind in motion, take whatever it brings

Chorus-
Here I am in NYC, the capitol of the world
Far from my hometown Houston, far for this Texas girl
Here I am in Empire City
I'm on top of the world
New York, New York
New York

Verse 3-
Sure ain't pleasant Texas, no friendly passer-bys
Just stressed out suits stressing 'bout their push and go lives
No driving slow on Sunday Mornings or watching clouds go by
Just busy streets with crazy cabbies fighting over traffic lights

Verse 4-
You'd think a Texas Tornado was on a path of destruction
The way the public scurries home after the daily grind function
Some ease the tension with a PBR, the cheapest they make
Some drop mad cash on a bottle now that's extravagant taste

Heart beats fast
           G
Colors and promises
          Em
How to be brave
          D             C
How can I love when I'm afraid

To fall
                 G
But watching you stand alone
          Em
All of my doubt
         D         C
Suddenly goes away somehow
         Em    D
One step closer
G
I have died everyday

waiting for you
Em
Darlin' don't be afraid
