John Conlee - A Common Man guitar chord

COMMON MAN

John Conlee

Writers : Sammy Johns

As the (G) maid poured wine and we (C) prepared to dine

I (D) knew I was feeling out of (G) place

At a table as large as a (C) river barge

And I (D) love you written all on your (G) face

Now, I ap(C)preciate your hospitality

But, I (G) wish that we would (D) go

Let me (G) drive us to McDonald's and I'll (C) talk to you

Concerning (D) something you should really (G) know

I'm just a (G) common man

Drive a (C) common van

My (G) dog ain't got a pedi(D)gree

If I (G) had my say

Gonna (C) stay that way

Cause (G) high-browed people lose (D/F#) their sanit(Em)y

And a (G) common (D) man is what I'll (G) be

I'll take a (G) Chevrolet just (C) any day

Give your (D) daddy back his Mercedes (G) Benz

And ther's some common people that I (C) hang out with

Their my (D) good time buddies, they're my (G) friends

And I'd (C) rather chug-a-lug a mug of Budweiser beer

Than sip a (G) crystal glass of (D) wine

So won't you (G) make your mind up to (C) believe in me

And leave this (D) high livin' world be(G)hind

I'm just a (G) common man

Drive a (C) common van

My (G) dog ain't got a pedi(D)gree

If I (G) had my say

Gonna (C) stay that way

Cause (G) high-browed people lose (D/F#) their sanit(Em)y

And a (G) common (D) man is what I'll (G) be

Yes, I'm (Am) happy just being (Em) free

And (Am) happy just being (Em) me

And I (Am) hope that you will (D7) see

I'm just a (G) common man

Drive a (C) common van

My (G) dog ain't got a pedi(D)gree

If I (G) had my say

Gonna (C) stay that way

Cause (G) high-browed people lose (D/F#) their sanit(Em)y

And a (G) common (D) man is what I'll (G) be
