Everybody’s Got A Song

[Verse 1]
Oh, I love this city
Everybody's got a song
It's like a secret we were always meant to share
From the church on every corner
To the broadway honky-tonks
We've got a million songs that mingle in the air
And oh, I love this city

[Verse 2]
Well the bus rolled into Nashville
It parked on holy ground
Beside the red brick of the mother church of country
For a hundred years the hardwood here's been soaking up the sound
And now the stage, it feels, is sacred as a Sunday

[Chorus]
And oh, I love this city
Everybody's got a song
Evеrybody's got a song
And oh, it sounds so pretty when evеrybody sings along

[Verse 3]
We've been gone a couple weeks now
Playing for the crowds
Sometimes they're looking back as if they know me well
But tonight I know my family and my friends are in the house
And I just need the story only you can tell

[Chorus]
And oh, I love this city
Everybody's got a song
Everybody's got a song
And oh, it sounds so pretty when everybody sings along

[Bridge]
Well there's a dark night in the skyline
We've got cattle in the fields and we've got Parthenons
And puppet shows and poets
And when the river is in flood
With all the sorrow that you feel
Well, we've got just the song you need
I think you know it

[Verse 4]
It's a song that came before us
It's gonna be here when we're gone
Sometimes I think I hear it drifting on the wind
And it tells me there's a city where the band plays on and on
And every soul is gonna sing the last amen

[Outro]
And oh, I love that city
Everybody's got a song
Everybody's got a song
And oh, it sounds so pretty when everybody sings along
(It is well, it is well)
(With my soul, with my soul)
(It is well, it is well with my soul)
