The story

Right Dollar is an innovative four-piece band, formed in the bustling streets of Brooklyn, New York in 2011. A chance meeting in a local record shop bonded the members together through their shared love for music that subtly pushes boundaries while still maintaining a catchy, digestible sound. Starting out playing in local bars, they quickly gained a reputation for their unique sound and energetic performances. The band members include lead vocalist and guitarist, Johnny "Silver" Simmons, bassist Ricky "Copper" Jones, keyboardist and back-up vocalist Jamie "Bronze" Bennett, and drummer Aaron "Gold" Peterson. The name 'Right Dollar' was inspired by their belief that music is the 'right' and most valuable currency.

Rusted Coins

Verse
Am                         G                           F                     C
I've been walking down a road, it's paved with rusted coins
Am                        G                     F                       C
Unspoken dreams and silent voice, lost in the noisy loins
Am                        G                      F                     C
I see faces in the crowd, all searching for some truth
Am                        G                      F                       C
But all we got are empty pockets, and the innocence of youth

Chorus
F                  C                  G
We're all Right Dollar dreamers, in a world that's become so cold
F                  C                   G
Trading hopes for rusted coins, while our stories remain untold

Verse
Am                            G                        F                        C
The city lights, they cast long shadows, on the hearts that have grown old
Am                            G                        F                        C
We're just Right Dollar dreamers, trying to turn rusted coins into gold

Chorus
F                  C                  G
We're all Right Dollar dreamers, with dreams that are worth more than gold
F                  C                  G
In this world of rusted coins, it's the dreamers who are bold
