Tell me more

Intro

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Chorus

Y'all were laughing when I fell down

Wrote my name in mud and walked away

Now you watch me standing on my own ground

Say it louder cause I'm here to stay

(Hey, hey)

Post-Chorus

Tell me more

Tell me more

Tell me what you said before

(Oh-oh, oh-oh)

Verse 1

Sixteen with a busted dream and a bruise

You said I'd never make it past the door

Every lunch alone in a crowded room

Learned to sing to keep from feeling poor

Hungry nights I hid from everyone

Built a voice from all the things you said

Now the quiet kid you swore was nothing

Turns your whisper into something loud instead

Pre-Chorus

So go ahead

Say it again

I've been rehearsing every word

Chorus

Y'all were laughing when I fell down

Wrote my name in mud and walked away

Now you watch me standing on my own ground

Say it louder cause I'm here to stay

(Hey, hey)

Post-Chorus

Tell me more

Tell me more

Tell me what you said before

(Oh-oh, oh-oh)

Verse 2

I kept every single note you sent

Folded sharp inside my winter coat

Pain was just a teacher I outgrew

Every scar became a stepping stone

Mama cried the night I told her everything

Now she hears her daughter on the radio

Call me crazy call me weak call me anything

I turned your little arrows into gold

Pre-Chorus

So go ahead

Say it again

I've been rehearsing every word

Chorus

Y'all were laughing when I fell down

Wrote my name in mud and walked away

Now you watch me standing on my own ground

Say it louder cause I'm here to stay

(Hey, hey)

Bridge

You were loud

I was small

You were wrong

Watch me rise watch me rise watch me rise

Drop

Here to stay

Here to stay

Chorus

Y'all were laughing when I fell down

Wrote my name in mud and walked away

Now you watch me standing on my own ground

Say it louder cause I'm here to stay

Post-Chorus

Tell me more

Tell me more

Tell me what you said before

(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
