Emily Scott Robinson - Cheap Seats lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh I've been right where you are Puttin' miles on my car, drivin' to some dead end job each day Smilin' for my tips, pickin' up those extra shifts Waitressing all my best years away [Pre-Chorus] Some nights I'l buy a ticket and sit alone In the mother church up in the highest row [Chorus] I'm in the cheap seats watchin' the big show Hopin' that one day I'll look back and know That every big dream and every heart prayer And every long road would deliver me up there Singin' for the cheap seats Singin' for the cheap seats [Verse 2] Half way through a busy night I get a song idea to write And I slip out back to get the chorus down Now table twenty-eight is complainin' about the wait And my manager just shakes his head and frowns [Pre-Chorus] I won't let them have the best of me One day I'll quit this job and then they'll see [Chorus] I'm in the cheap seats watchin' the big show Hopin' that one day I'll look back and know That every big dream and every heart prayer And every long road would deliver me up there Singin' for the cheap seats Singin' for the cheap seats [Verse 3] I'm so hungry I can taste it, want so badly just to make it I got a thousand songs inside me left to write Got to find my voice and use it, set true north and do not lose it And keep that candle burnin' through the night [Pre-Chorus] And I want everything before I'm ready And it'll only come once I am standin' steady [Chorus] Here's to the cheap seats, now I'm the big show I wish I could go back and tell that girl that I know That every big dream and every heart prayer And every long road would deliver me up there Singin' for the cheap seats Singin' for the cheap seats [Outro] Yeah here's to the cheap seats Yeah here's to the cheap seats
