Backstory:
Rosy Bar began as a trio of college friends from Michigan. Lead vocalist and guitarist, Jonah Hayes, had a penchant for telling stories through his music. He would often gather his friends, bassist, Emily Trench, and drummer, Sam Kingston, for late-night jam sessions in their rundown apartment. They would play their hearts out until the sun came up, just for the love of music. While attending a local music festival, they stumbled upon a small bar with an open-mic night. On a whim, Jonah decided to share his stories, and Rosy Bar was born. The crowd was captivated by their raw emotions and unique sound. The band’s journey took off from there, playing at local bars, and t eventually headline their own tours. Despite their success, they remain deeply grounded, often going back to Michigan to play in their local bars.

Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1:
[C]I found my love, [G]in the Rosy bar
[Am]Underneath the neon lights, [F]reflecting in her eyes
[C]She laughed at my jokes, [G]and we danced in the dark
[Am]In a corner booth, [F]underneath the starlight
Chorus:
[C]Whiskey in the dawn, [G]her love keeps me warm
[Am]In this cold and lonely town, [F]her love is my crown
[C]She’s the melody, [G]in this life’s crazy song
[Am]With her, everything is right, [F]even when it’s all wrong
Verse 2:
[C]I lost my way, [G]in the city’s maze
[Am]She held my hand, [F]and we ran in the rain
[C]She whispers dreams, [G]into my ear
[Am]Her voice, the only thing [F]I want to hear
(Repeat Chorus)
[C]Whiskey in the dawn, [G]her love keeps me warm
[Am]In this cold and lonely town, [F]her love is my crown
[C]She’s the melody, [G]in this life’s crazy song
[Am]With her, everything is right, [F]even when it’s all wrong
