Biografía:
Sam Riggs wears a legacy of honest country, makes good rock, writes lyrics that matter and straps on a stage presence second to none.” -- Ray Wylie Hubbard
Receiving a hand up in this business of music from the likes of Ray Wylie Hubbard is no small accomplishment, and that mentorship – and sometimes harsh instruction – was not lost on Sam Riggs, who has had the fortunate opportunity to meander through Wylie’s cerebral countryside over the last few years.

[INTRO]
G D Em C
[VERSE 1]
G
You might say that I'm an old has been
D
You might say I'm just a never was
Em
I'm a little bit of both now and then
C
Never really stood to fight for much
G
But something happened when your eyes met mine
D
I became a different man
Em
Heard a whisper screaming deep inside
C
You better ask that girl to dance
Em
So when the lights went down
D
The band cranked up
C
We stepped out on that floor
Em D
Started out with one slow dance
C
I got something worth fighting for
[CHORUS]
G
Never been the kind to turn around
D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
Em D C
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
Em D C
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
G
If I had you
[VERSE 2]
G
I drink my liquor from the bottom shelf
D
Smoke it if it burns
Em
Know I'm gunna have the devil to pay
C
When it comes my turn
G
But I wouldn't ever do you wrong
D
I got everything to prove
Em
Never wanted someone so strong
C
Until I saw you
Em
So when the lights come on
D
The band tears down
C
I'll be the one to take you home
Em
And when the night winds blow
D C
You're never gunna be alone.
[CHORUS]
G
Never been the kind to turn around
D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
Em D C
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
Em D C
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
Em D C (x2)
If I had you
[CHORUS]
G
Never been the kind to turn around
D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
