[Verse]
D
I just got done stringing
G D
This ol' beat up guitar
D
It won't help my singing
G A
But it'll help the tip jar
D
The bass player's drinking
G D
Shots of Jim Beam
D
And the drummer is missing
A D
In action again
[Verse]
D
Well I imagined my time
G D
In a hillbilly band
D
Would be like a song
G A
From a Don Williams fan
D
But even The Gentle
G D
Giant would say
D
Head for the hills son
A D
This isn't your day
[Chorus]
G
So wind up the crowd
D
And throw yourself in
A
Singing the standards
D
Just ain't a sin
G
Sweet Caroline and
D G
All My Rowdy Friends
D
Put gas in the van
A D
And let us do it again
[Verse]
D
We hit the road
G D
For a new joint in Reno
D
Owner promised us cash
A
And no-limit keno
D
We played Hank from behind
G D
Chicken wire with a genny
D
We rolled lucky to Vegas
A D
With more than a penny
[Chorus]
G
So wind up the crowd
D
And get in their faces
A
Singing the standards
D
Don't make them discraces
G
Sweet Home Alabama
D G
And Family Tradition
D
Put gas in the van
A D
And let us do it again
[Instrumental Break]
D G D D A
D G D D A D
[Bridge]
Bm
Someday we'll be famous
A
Almost like we planned it
C
Until then we'll keep gigging
C
Like we understand it
[Verse]
D
We ain't gettin no younger
G D
The late nights are tough
D
The desire and the hunger
A
Sometimes ain't enough
D
The question of quitting
G D
Has re-mained unanswered
D
And until it is
A D
We'll keep playing the standards
[Chorus]
G
So rile up the crowd
D
And tip your bartenders
A
Singing the standards
D
Mean you ain't surrendered
G
Ace In The Hole
D
And Friends In Low Places
D
Put gas in the van
A D
And let's us do it again
[Outro]
D
I just got done stringing
G D
This ol' beat up guitar
D
It won't help my singing
A D
But it'll help the tip jar...
