Saw Me Here

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Had a tenth grade teacher, nonbeliever Tellin' me to just drop out "One day, you'll see, nothing's all you'll be" Were the last words outta her mouth They saw me leave that school that sophomore year But never saw me here [Verse 2] Had a couple people tell me to leave that Six-string in the pawn shop That my dream was so outta reach I'd never see the top I saw me playin' for tips and cheap cold beer But never saw me here [Chorus] I thought I'd be stuck in that town Workin' that clock 'til the sun goes down Drinkin' my dreams away in a dive bar chair That two-lane truck that I was drivin' around Is nowhere near where I am right now Even that boy lookin' back in the rearview mirror Never saw me here [Verse 3] There's a hometown girl that my whole world Was supposed to be spinnin' 'round A five-acre field with some rollin' hills And roots to be planted down I saw us makin' memories way out there I never saw me here [Chorus] I thought I'd be stuck in that town Workin' that clock 'til the sun goes down Drinkin' my dreams away in a dive bar chair That two-lane truck that I was drivin' around Is nowhere near where I am right now Even that boy lookin' back in the rearview mirror Never saw me [Bridge] Standin' on stage, singin' my songs With all of y'all there, singin' along Some days, I wake up and don't understand it And not a day goes by I take it for granted [Chorus] I thought I'd be stuck in that town Workin' that clock 'til the sun goes down Drinkin' my dreams away in a dive bar chair I swear that two-lane truck that I was drivin' around Is nowhere near where I am right now Even that boy lookin' back in the rearview mirror Never saw me, never saw me here
