Standard (EADGBE)

I've been-- chasin' the big wheels

All over Nashville

Waitin' for my big break to come

Livin' on ketchup soup, homemade

Crackers and KoolAid

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

I'm a Nashville bum

I look good in cowboy clothes

And I sing through my nose

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

I smoke good old PA

Like the Opry stars, they say

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

I'm a Nashville bum

Well, a friend of a friend of mine

Is a friend of art divines

And he finally got me on the Opry show

I walked out like a star

Tripped and busted my guitar

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

I'm a Nashville bum

Well now, here's a song I wrote

By myself, note for note

With a lot of help, if I make Number One

You can change a word or two

And I'll give half of it to you

I'll be a star tomorrow, but today

I'm a Nashville bum

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