D

I've been-- chasin' the big wheels

G D

All over Nashville

A

Waitin' for my big break to come

D

Livin' on ketchup soup, homemade

G D

Crackers and KoolAid

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

A7 D

I'm a Nashville bum

G

I look good in cowboy clothes

D

And I sing through my nose

A

Webb said "That's the way to get 'er done"

D

I smoke good old PA

G D

Like the Opry stars, they say

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

A7 D

I'm a Nashville bum

E

Well, a friend of a friend of mine

A E

Is a friend of art divines

B

And he finally got me on the Opry show

E

I walked out like a star

A E

Tripped and busted my guitar

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

B7 E

I'm a Nashville bum

A

Well now, here's a song I wrote

E

By myself, note for note

B

With a lot of help, if I make Number One

E

You can change a word or two

A E

And I'll give half of it to you

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

B7 E

I'm a Nashville bum

Yes, I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

B7 E

I'm a Nashville bum
