[Verse 1]
There's a Tennessee two-lane sky
Shakes the Broadway bars at night
Makes you wanna get a little too close
To a Cali girl watchin' windshield satellites
It's a soundtrack to our lives
It's the only reason why
A kid from Carolina would drive to Nashville
To chase a dream without a dime

[Chorus 1]
It's why we drink too much on Friday nights
Raise our hand in the neon lights
Sweet Home Alabama and a Ring of Fire
I could sing along 'til the day I die
Why we break up, fall back in love
Why we roll around in the bed of a truck
Why we all stop when we hear that one
And she whispers, "Turn it up"

[Post-Chorus]
And for a second, we're bulletproof
We get lost in a song or two
The world don't move, and all I need is you
And three chords and the truth

[Verse 2]
I see you blinkin' through your blue eyes
How a song can turn back time
You can almost feel the sand on your feet
From the passenger seat
Singing anything but mine
And don't you know that we were raised on the radio?

[Chorus 2]
It's why we drink too much on Friday nights
Raise our hand in the neon lights
Copperhead Road and Mama tried
I could sing along 'til the day I die
Why we break up, fall back in love
Why we roll around in the bed of a truck
Why we all stop when we hear that one
And she whispers, "Turn it up"

[Post-Chorus]
And for a second, we're bulletproof
We get lost in a song or two
The world don't move, and all I need is you
And three chords and the truth

[Bridge]
It's Muscle Shoals to rock n' roll
It's a steel guitar that steals your soul
It's a country song that takes you home again

[Chorus 3]
It's why we drink too much on Friday nights
Raise our hand in church pew aisles
Amazing Grace, Sweet By and By
I could sing along 'til the day I die
Why we break up, fall back in love
Why we roll around in the bed of a truck
Why we all stop when we hear that one
And she whispers, "Turn it up"

[Post-Chorus]
And for a second we're bulletproof
Get lost in a song or two
The world don't move, and all I need is you
And three chords and the truth

Country music maverick Chase Rice has become one of country music’s most exciting figures since arriving in Nashville, building a loyal fan base across the country through his energetic live shows and gaining the attention of music critics and industry professionals alike with his edgy, eclectic sound. The Tar Heel State native recently released his first taste of new music with “Lonely If You Are,” now available on all digital platforms and climbing the charts at Country radio. The song follows his sophomore album, Lambs & Lions, released with Broken Bow Records in 2017 and featuring two-week chart-topper “Eyes On You” – Rice’s first No. 1 as an artist and the most-streamed song of his career with more than 200 million streams and counting. Lambs & Lions followed Ignite the Night, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre chart, producing a pair of Top 5 hits; the Platinum-certified “Ready Set Roll” and “Gonna Wanna Tonight.” After supporting Kenny Chesney’s The Big Revival Tour, Rice has consistently sold out 2,500-3,000 seat venues on his own headlining tours, plus served as direct support on the Luke Bryan Farm Tour 2018. His current headlining AM/PM Tour runs through the rest of 2019 before his The Pint of Anything Tour hits Europe in early 2020.
