Underdog
Recorded by The Lost Trailers
[Intro]
| G | D/F# |
[Verse]
G D/F# Em
They said you ain't got a prayer, a chance in you know where
C
But I just didn't care, when I looked in your eyes
G D/F# Em
You were a long shot from the start, an easy way to break my heart
C
But as perfect as you are, you gotta risk it all sometimes
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em D
I believe in the underdog who chases dreams and breaks down walls
C Bm Am D
The shy kid who gets the prom queen who's never been the star of anything
G D/F# Em Am
And those two lovers hitched at city hall, they've got each other so they've got it all
C Bm Am
Call me a dreamer or say I'm a little na- -ive
Bm C D G D/F#
Oh, but I be- lieve in the underdog | | |
[Verse]
G D
We bought a 4-room fixer up on the side of town where times are tough
Em C
Short on cash, but a lot on love, yeah, we sure showed it
G D
Then you gave me our little man, so small he fit inside my hand
Em C
Two months early, two pounds, the tallest kid in third grade now
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em D
Yeah,I believe in the underdog who chases dreams and breaks down walls
C Bm Am D
The shy kids who gets the prom queen who's never been the star of anything
G D/F# Em Am
And those two lovers hitched at city hall, they've got each other so they've got it all
C Bm Am
Call me a dreamer or say I'm a little na- -ive
Bm C D
Oh, but I believe in the underdog
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
D Em C G
The bank's still breathing down our necks, we're still living check to check
D Em C D
Girl, we dig deeper everyday, we still hit our knees and pray, we pray, we pray
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em D
Oh, I believe in the underdog who chases dreams and breaks down walls
C Bm Am D
How a guy like me could get the prom queen, I'd never been the star of anything
G D/F# Em D
We were two lovers hitched at city hall, still got each other so we've got it all
C Bm Am
Call me a dreamer or say I'm a little na- -ieve
Bm C Bm Am
Yeah, you can call me a dreamer or say I'm a little na- -ieve
Bm C D G D/F# Em
But I be- lieve in the underdog oh, in the underdog
C G D/F# Em C G

D/F# Em C
I be- lieve, oh, in the underdog
