Great Hall of Fame
Cowritten by Richie Sambora & Richie Supa. From the album "Les Paul & Friends - A tribute to a legend"

Lord you struggle as a singer
working barrooms to help pay the rent
and you hardly got a dollar
to show for the years you've spent

in your heart lies a dreamer
and your mind don't let you rest
all the nights you dont sleep
all the food you wont eat
cant distort the dreams you possess

So sing sing for the glory
in the bar rooms the dreams die in vain
while the drifter plays in your mind you remain

taken by the Great Hall of fame

And the people love the singer
so you walk out and work up a sweat
every night you cure your problems
with a bottle of instant forget

and you draw your inspiration
as you savor the passion and grace
and you drink all the nights
In a sinners byline?

Taken by the Great Hall of fame

So think sing for the glory
in a bar room where dreams die in vain
while the drifter plays in your mind you remain

Taken by the Great Hall of Fame

Up the ladder you have to climb
or is it just a waste of time
you can hae your life to live over
would you do it all again?

would you reach for the plain

So sing sing for the glory
in the bar rooms the dreams die in vain
while the drifter plays in your mind you remain

Would you reach
Would you reach
Wont you reach
yeah reach for the reach for the
wont you reach for the fame
Oh no

Would you reach for the fame?
