Jerry Lee Music

[Verso 1] G I grew up where the sirens were a lullaby D Streetlights burning holes in a sleepless sky Em Windows cracked just to hear the trains roll by C And the neighbors fighting through the drywall at night G Mama worked late on a check that barely came D I learned young how to swallow up the pain Em Dreamed of somewhere I could hear my own name C Without a crowd or a number in a lane [Refrão] G Now the crickets are singing where the traffic used to scream D And the stars look bigger than I ever couldve dreamed Em Got a porch light glowing where the skyline used to shine C And the quiet hits my chest like a glass of cheap red wine G Yeah the city made a man outta scars and broken plans D But the country taught my heart how to beat again Em I thought losing everything would be the end of me C But it turns out leavings what set me free [Verso 2] G First night out here I sat on the hood of my truck D Listening to a wind I didnt know how to trust Em No sirens, no drunks, no midnight fights C Just a million cold stars in the middle of the night G And it scared me how the silence felt so loud D Like the ghosts of who I was were in the clouds Em But the longer that I stayed, the more I found C You can breathe when the whole damn world slows down [Ponte] Em Sometimes I miss the chaos in my bones C The neon and the feeling of not being alone G But I traded all that noise for a sky this wide D And the kind of peace that makes a grown man cry [Refrão] G Now the crickets are singing where the traffic used to scream D And the stars look bigger than I ever couldve dreamed Em Got dirt on my boots where the sidewalks used to be C And a life I never thought would belong to me G Yeah the city raised a kid who was always on the run D But the country gave him somewhere to become Em And every night I thank God quietly C For the day that broken road led me free
