V1
I remember when I told Daddy
I was moving to Tennessee
He said one in a million make it girl
And it probably wasn’t me
I hung my head, my heart sank in my chest
But I kept rolling down I 40 West 
Bending strings and singing tunes
Still believing dreams come true

Chorus
Chase what you love and go through hell
Those no’s will turn to yes
You gotta have faith and trust the process
And push on past the rest
Down the road those dreams will all come true
You gotta keep chasing dreams 
‘Cos they won’t be chasing you

V2.
I remember the day I told momma
That I was coming home
I walked through the kitchen
She sat down to listen
To Alexa play my song
Her eyes grew big. Her smile so bright
She said baby girl 
It’s just a matter of time

Chorus
Chase what you love and go through hell
Those no’s will turn to yes
You gotta have faith and trust the process
And push on past the rest
Down the road those dreams will all come true
You gotta keep chasing dreams
‘Cos they won’t be chasing you

Bridge
This 10 year town ain’t made for the weak
What’s kept me strong is you supporting me

Chorus
Chase what you love and go through hell
Those no’s will turn to yes
You gotta have faith and trust the process
And push on past the rest
Down the road those dreams will all come true
You gotta keep chasing dreams
‘Cos they won’t be chasing you
