Tom: D D The promoter says he wants to cancel G Cause there ain't enough tickets sold A The air conditioner on the bus just broke D and I can't shake this cold The single lost the bullet, G the singer's losin' his wife; A well I might be crazy but I wouldn't change D A single thing about this life. Sometimes we feel like champions, G sometimes we just can't win, A sometimes our records hit the top of the charts D or the discount bargain bins. Through 20 years of touring G We've remained partners, brothers, and friends A we keep it together cause we're sure D we're gonna be big time before it all ends. G Well you know you've got the Nitty Gritty D and Jimmy's got his drums along A then Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be D singing all our favorite songs G Catch the fire from the folks in the front row D G fan the flames as the beat gets strong D F# B A it's great to be a part of something G A D so good that's lasted so long Well I saw a story in the paper G suddenly the band's big news A the critics all like our records just fine D but they seem a bit confused is it folk or rock or country G seems like everybody cares but us A so just leave us an early wakeup call D so we don't miss the bus Refrão ------------- D G The band says it can't stand my latest song, it's too personal A but my first wife's second marriage blew up D she had to get the dang thing annulled well if that ain't something to sing about G well you tell me what is A and we'll give it a beat and put it on the street D and we just might have another hit -------------------- Chorus (Great Song)
