I been drinking all day for a livin' 
     C                    G 
been dreaming bout movin' on 

Seems like every little thing I 
             A                    D 
do they been putting in a country song 
      G                        C                 G 
And I saw you on the TV man is that some kind of joke 
         C                        G 
You been making a killing off the shoes I'm filling 
      D                     G 
while I'm sitting here gone broke 
      C                     G 
So as long as we're trading favors 
         C               G 
a little pleasure for my pain 
       C              G 
Let me stand up there just one time 
    A                D 
and here 'em call my name 
   G 
My friends all think I'm crazy 
                      C 
and my mamma wouldn't understand 
                   G 
But just one time before I die 
          D               G 
I want to sit in with the band 

C  G  D  G 

G 
Well I know it must be something 
     C              G 
your talent or your style 

Your hundred dollar blue jeans 
        A              D 
or your million dollar smile 
    G 
But I don't need me no gold records 
        C       G 
I don't need no limousines 
        C                  G 
I don't need to tear up my dressing room 
        D               G 
with no Beaumont beauty queens 

            C                     G 
And I don't care if its backwoods country 
        C           G 
I don't care if its rock and roll 
        C                               G 
I don't care if it's humming through my old tin roof 
   A              D 
or playin' on the radio 
   G 
My friends all think I'm crazy 
                     c 
and my mama wouldn't understand 
                  G 
But just one time before I die 
          D               G 
I want to sit in with the band
