Ever wish you could go back and tell younger you what to prepare for in life? Yeah me too. That's why I wrote this song.

lyrics

Hey Little girl

Verse 1
Hey little girl in the living room playing Chopin Nocturne’s in the middle of June.
I hear you belting those Whitney songs and the sound of rewind when you hit a note wrong.

Verse 2
You’re already a star in your little town. I know you’re gonna make your parents proud.
You’ll try college, it won’t be for you. Tennessee will call your name and you’ll make the move.

Chorus
Can’t count the miles you’ll travel or how many times you’ll unravel.
You’ll find your muse in the color blue and the men you choose, play to sold out crowds and empty rooms.
And when the business of it all scares you away the music will keep you sane.

Verse 3
You’re not gonna write what they wanna hear knowing full well it could hurt your career.
No number ones or trophies on your shelf but you’ll find a reward within yourself.

Chorus 2
Your love life will be full of maybe’s, 32 you’ll lose a baby.
The pieces of your broken heart will fall off your sleeve onto the floor and be turned into another song.
And when the weight of it all scares you away the music will keep you sane.

Bridge
The sleepless nights, the bumpy roads that seem to lead to nowhere
You’ll push yourself to the limit and throw your hands up in the air
Crippled by your doubting mind you’ll turn away the helping hands
You’ll finally get to the Grand Canyon
And you’ll feel like jumping in...

Chorus 3
Your heart will stand the test of endurance
You’ll give the people blessed assurance
You’ll be your own muse of the life you choose bringing light into a dark room
And when the burden of it all scares you away
The music will keep you sane
