Title:
“Suit and Tie Rebellion”
Full Song Lyrics:
[Intro] F C G
[Verse 1]
F C
Wake up at dawn, tie the knot,
G
Coffee in hand, give it a shot.
F C
Rushing through the crowd, same old routine,
G
Pretending to be someone I’m not so keen.
[Chorus]
Dm F C G
Suit and Tie Rebellion, it’s my confession,
Dm F C G
Underneath this facade, there’s a session,
Dm F C G
Of dreams and melodies, hidden in aggression,
Dm F C G
Suit and Tie Rebellion, it’s my progression.
[Verse 2]
F C
Sing in the shower, hum on the train,
G
Lyrics on napkins, it’s not in vain.
F C
Cubicle by day, stage by night,
G
In my world of black and white.
[Chorus]
Dm F C G
Suit and Tie Rebellion, it’s my obsession,
Dm F C G
Trading briefcases for bass, it’s my transgression,
Dm F C G
Music is my escape, my heart’s expression,
Dm F C G
Suit and Tie Rebellion, it’s my redemption.
[Bridge]
Am Em
In this concrete jungle, where dreams are subtle,
F G
I found my rhythm in the office hustle.
[Chorus]
Dm F C G
Suit and Tie Rebellion, it’s my impression,
Dm F C G
From white collar to guitar collar, my transition,
Dm F C G
Music in my veins, it’s my profession,
Dm F C G
Suit and Tie Rebellion, it’s my liberation.
[Outro]
F C G
Sing, defy, rebel, fly.
