Chief Material is an indie rock band that emerged from the lively music scene in Austin, Texas. The band’s members, Cody, the lead vocalist and guitarist, Terry, the bassist, Amanda on drums, and Tommy, the lead guitarist, met at a music festival in 2012. Their shared love for rock, blues, and the psychedelic sounds of the ’70s brought them together. They began playing in local bars, and their raw talent and undeniable chemistry quickly gained them a devoted following.

Song Title:
“Glass Houses”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[G]Staring out of glass houses, [D]hoping no one sees,
[C]Living in the shadows, [G]playing hide and seek.
[D]We wear our hearts on our sleeves, [C]underneath the neon lights,
[G]But we’re just people, [D]fighting for our rights.

(Chorus)
[G]In these glass houses, [D]we’re all the same,
[C]Chasing dreams, [G]playing the game.
[D]We may stumble, [C]and we may fall,
[G]But in our glass houses, [D]we stand tall.

(Verse 2)
[G]We’re all dreamers, [D]underneath the city lights,
[C]In our glass houses, [G]fighting the good fight.
[D]We may be different, [C]but we’re all one,
[G]In these glass houses, [D]under the same sun.

(Chorus)
[G]In these glass houses, [D]we’re all the same,
[C]Chasing dreams, [G]playing the game.
[D]We may stumble, [C]and we may fall,
[G]But in our glass houses, [D]we stand tall.
