I've been D -- chasin' the big wheels
G All over D Nashville
Waitin' for my big break to A come
Livin' on D ketchup soup, homemade
G Crackers and D KoolAid
I'll be a star tomorrow, but today
I'm a A7 Nashville D bum
I look G good in cowboy clothes
And I D sing through my nose
Webb said "That's the way to get 'er A done"
I D smoke good old PA
Like the G Opry stars, they D say
I'll be a star tomorrow, but today
I'm a A7 Nashville D bum
A7 D 2
Well, a E friend of a friend of mine
Is a A friend of art di E vines
And he finally got me on the Opry B show
I E walked out like a star
Tripped and A busted my E guitar
I'll be a star tomorrow, but today
I'm a B7 Nashville E bum
Well now, A here's a song I wrote
By my E self, note for note
With a lot of help, if I make Number B One
You can E change a word or two
And I'll give A half of it to E you
I'll be a star tomorrow, but today
I'm a B7 Nashville E bum
Yes, I'll be a star tomorrow, but today
I'm a B7 Nashville E bum
