D
Someone asked me once in an interview
D
What was growing up like? Where'd you go to school?
G D
And what would you do if you weren't doin' this?
D
I'd be drivin' my first car, an old worn-out Dodge
D G
Tryin' to make rent with a dead-end job, just makin' due
Bm A G
With tips in a jar, my guitar, and an old barstool
D
I'd have a Friday night crowd in the palm of my hand
D/F#
Cup of brown liquor, couple buddies in a band
Bm A G
Singin' them same damn songs like I am now
D
I'd be feelin' on fire on a hardwood stage
D/F#
Bright lights like lightning runnin' through my veins
Bm A G
At the Grand Ole Opry or a show in some no-name town
D
I'd still be doin' this if I wasn't doin' this
D
I'd still be the same guy they knew back in the day
D
Who was burnin' CDs just to give away
G D
Payin' his dues if I wasn't doin' this
D
Five deep in a van, head full of steam
D G
Hot on the heels of my neon dreams maybe comin' true
Bm A G
Livin' this life just like I was born to do
D
I'd have a Friday night crowd in the palm of my hand
D/F#
Cup of brown liquor, couple buddies in a band
Bm A G
Singin' them same damn songs like I am now
D
I'd be feelin' on fire on a hardwood stage
D/F#
Bright lights like lightning runnin' through my veins
Bm A G
At the Grand Ole Opry or a show in some no-name town
D
I'd still be doin' this if I wasn't doin' this
Bm
It ain't about the fame
A
It ain't about the fortune
D
It ain't about the name
G
It ain't about the glory
Bm A G
I guess I'm sayin' it's always been about
D
Having a Friday night crowd in the palm of my hand
D/F#
Cup of brown liquor, couple buddies in a band
Bm A G
Singin' them same damn songs like I am now
D
I'd be feelin' on fire on a hardwood stage
