[VERSE]
[E]Working in an o[A7]ld country diner
[E]A hollow bell rings when you open up the doo[B7]r
[E]She’s cleaning off the tables as she[A7] listens to the fables
[E]from the truckers coming in off [B7]44 [E]
[E]She just outsid[A7]e of Tulsa Oklahoma
[E]And planned on making it on to Nashville Ten[B7]nessee
[E]Somewhere along the way her blue sky[A7] dream it turned to gray
[E]Now all thats left are dusty me[B7]mor[E]ies
[BRIDGE]
[E]But she still smiles lik[A]e the world is her oyster [Em]
[E]Like she’s aware of som[A]ething nobody else knows [Em]
[E]Has a good word for e[A]veryone she meets [Em]
[B]Lives a life that’s more complete
[Em]Like every days a chance to get it r[A7]ight
[Em]No she just won’t give in and w[B7]on’t give up the fi[Em]ght
[CHORUS]
[A]Overcoming is sign that your still l[Em]ivin
[Em]things ain’t as r[A]osey as they were when you were [Em]new
[Em]to Over[A]come you got to hit your knees
[B]pray to God and then release
[Em]the thing thats got you stuck inside your bl[A7]ues
[Em]you overcome it when your l[B7]ife’s been rough on [Em]you
[E]He’s toolin dow[A7]n the highway in his Chevy
[E]His heavy eyes were nearly heavy as his hear[B7]t
[E]He thinks "I better pull off before [A7]I go and doze off
[Em]And rolled into that diners par[B7]king lot [Em]
[E]The hollow bell[A7] announced him as he walked in
[E]She could tell he was a broken hearted man [B7]
[E]She smiled and offered up a cup said[A7] "hey bud how long he’d been up”
[E]And then listened to his story[B7] till the end [E]
[BRIDGE]
[E]And when he finished u[A]p she flashed him a warm smi[E]le
[E]And said I hope you [A]know that you are not alone [E]
[E]That everyone whose eve[A]r dared to dream [E]
[B]Gambles losing everything
[E]But living any other way a lie [A7]
[E]you just embrace the tattered[B7] fabric of your lif[E]e
[CHORUS]
Ov[A]ercoming is sign that your still liv[Em]in
[Em]things ain’t as r[A]osey as they were when you were [Em]new
[Em]to Over[A]come you got to hit your knees
[B]pray to God and then release
[Em]the thing thats got you stuck inside your bl[A7]ues
[Em]you overcome it when your l[B7]ife’s been rough on [Em]you
