Backstory:
Impossible Garage is a band that emerged from the grungy underground music scene of Cincinnati, Ohio. Its members – frontman Blain, bassist Vicky, lead guitarist JT, drummer Quinn, and keyboardist Myles – were all college dropouts trying to make ends meet through odd jobs. They formed the band in 2012, united by their shared love for music, their rebellious spirit, and the desire to break free from the conformity of everyday life. Their debut album “In The Midst of Chaos” was released in 2015 and since then, they have been creating ripples in the indie music scene, making their way from garage gigs to sold-out shows in the city’s biggest venues.

“Refuse to Fade”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Lost in a [D] world full of [Em] pretense
[C] We chose to [G] create our [D] defense
[G] Midnight battles in the [D] basement
[Em] Dreams bigger than the [C] world’s pavement.
(Chorus)
[G] Refuse to [D] fade, refuse to [Em] break
[C] In the [G] midst of chaos, we [D] create
[G] With every [D] strum, with every [Em] beat
[C] We built our [G] world in this [D] Impossible Garage street.
(Verse 2)
[G] Strumming chords under [D] neon lights
[Em] Living dreams, reaching [C] new heights
[G] Underdogs with [D] gritty fight
[Em] This is our [C] anthem, our [G] night.
(Chorus)
[G] Refuse to [D] fade, refuse to [Em] break
[C] In the [G] midst of chaos, we [D] create
[G] With every [D] strum, with every [Em] beat
[C] We built our [G] world in this [D] Impossible Garage street.
(Bridge)
[G] We started from [D] less, but we’re [Em] aiming for more
[C] This is our [G] life, this is our [D] roar.
(Chorus)
[G] Refuse to [D] fade, refuse to [Em] break
[C] In the [G] midst of chaos, we [D] create
[G] With every [D] strum, with every [Em] beat
[C] We built our [G] world in this [D] Impossible Garage street.
Outro
[G] This is our [D] music, this is our [Em] stage
[C] We are [G] Impossible Garage, we [D] refuse to fade.
