Biography:
Bentley's musical style is considered to be more traditional than many of his contemporaries and often contains traditional themes of lost or forbidden love, drinking and cheating. "Lot of leavin' left to do", one of his biggest singles, is also reminiscent of Waylon Jennings' style of Outlaw country with Western Swing influences.
Early life
Dierks Bentley was born in Phoenix, Arizona. Then he moved to Lawrenceville, New Jersey, where he attended the Lawrenceville School, graduating in 1993.[1]

From "Feel That Fire" (2009)
(Brett Beavers, Dierks Bentley & Tony Martin)
Capo: 2nd Fret or scaled down a full step to E
INTRO: [D] [D]Woo [G]yeah, oh [G]
[D] By now I shoulda been broken on the rocks of rising life's ocean
[G] Just another ship lost at sea
[D] By now I shoulda been scattered in the wind of my lonesome travels
[G] Like a thousand dandelion seeds
[Bm] And I shoulda come un-[A]raveled at the seams like a well worn [G] sweater
But you hold me to-[D]gether
[D] My hope shoulda been shattered like a bottle out behind some tavern
[G] From a fight that you had no chance to win
[D] My dreams shoulda been ashes gone up in smoke like a book of matches
[G] Tossed away and never gonna burn again
[Bm] And I shoulda worn right through [A] like an old cowboy's boot [G] leather
But you hold me to-[D]gether
CHORUS #1:
I feel [A]your [G]love surrounding me [D]
[A]Strong e-[G]nough that I can believe [D]
[A]There won't [G]ever be a [A]storm that I can't [G]weather
'Cause you hold me to-[Em]gether, ah [D]woo
To-[Em]gether, yeah [D]yeah
CHORUS #2
I feel [A]your [G]love surrounding me [D]
[A]Strong e-[G]nough that I can believe [D]
[A]There won't [Bm]ever be a [A]storm that I can't [G]weather
No, there [Bm]never be a [A]storm that I can't [G]weather
[D] I shoulda been long forgotten just a footnote down at the bottom
[G] Of a page in the book of what coulda been's
[Bm] My heart should lie in [A]pieces on the ground like a goodbye [G] letter
[Em] But you hold me to-[D]gether
Oh [G]oh, you hold me to-[D]gether, yeah [G]yeah
You hold me to-[Em]gether, ah [D]woo
To-[Em]gether, yeah [D]yeah
Oh [Em]oh, you hold me, you hold me [D]
To-[Em]gether, oh [D]oh
