Backstory:
The Second-Hand Alliance was born in the dusty corners of a vintage store in downtown Portland, Oregon. The band members, who were then just mere acquaintances, kept running into each other while hunting for vinyl records. After a few shared laughs over their mutual love for retro culture and classic rock, they decided to form a band in the summer of 2012. The Second-Hand Alliance has grown from a simple jamming session between four vintage music enthusiasts to a full-fledged band that brings a fresh twist to the classic rock genre. The band comprises of Jack Newman on vocals, Sarah Moore on bass guitar, Paul Dempsey on drums, and Roger ‘Rog’ Johnson on lead guitar.

Title:
“Survivors of Time”

Full Song with Chord Progression:

[Verse 1: Am, E, G, D]
In the shadows of the past, (Am)
Where our heartbeat was the last, (E)
We found music in sorrow’s cast, (G)
Our melody, strong and vast. (D)

[Chorus: C, G, A, F]
We’re the survivors of time, (C)
On the journey, we’ve paid the dime, (G)
In every note, in every rhyme, (A)
Our souls, in rhythm and chime. (F)

[Verse 2: Am, E, G, D]
In the echo of yesterday, (Am)
In the tunes we dare to play, (E)
We find a path, we find a way, (G)
In the music, we find our say. (D)

[Chorus: C, G, A, F]
We’re the survivors of time, (C)
With a rhythm and a rhyme, (G)
In the end, it’s a mountain we climb, (A)
In the music, we witness the prime. (F)
