Nashville You Fooled Me

If I hear one more song about God and country
I may not be long for this world
I woke up near Margaritaville
Me and Saint Dolly my girl

With dreams of the Bluebird, a notebook and pen
I set off for Tennessee
In search of that songwriters paradise
Just like the ones on TV

Nashville you fooled me, you promised me heart
I had pedal steel dreams and you tore them apart
I looked out my window and what do I see
A shooting star falling fast and free

I'm drinking tap water, that's all I have
In my corporate air bnb
Tornados of tourists and bachelorettes
And cowboys are out to party

Nashville you fooled me, you promised me heart
I had pedal steel dreams and you tore them apart
I looked out my window and what do I see
A shooting star falling fast and free
A shooting star falling fast and free

I'm always looking for a place
The magic of a time and space
So many times I set off blind
It's always the journey that I find
Seems every place with a legacy
Is swallowed up by enterprise
And time will erase everyone of us and
Out of the stardust we'll rise

Nashville I left you with songs in my heart
Nashville I left you in love with the art
I looked out my window and what do I see?
A shooting star falling fast and free
A shooting star falling fast and free
A shooting star that felt like me
