Verse 1
I (G major) (B minor) live (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major) (C minor)
(G major) (A minor) (C minor) (G major) the kind of life
that (C major) most men only dream (G major) of
I make my living writin' (D major) songs
and singin' (G major) bills
But I'm 41 years old
and I ain't (C major) got no place to
go when it's (G major) over.
But I hide my age and make the stage,
(D major) try to kick the footlights out again. (G major)
(C minor) I throw (G major) my old
guitar across the stage (C major)
And then the bassman takes the (G major) ball
And the crowd goes nearly wild (D major)
To see my guitar nearly fall (G major)
After twenty years of pickin'
(C major) I'm still alive and kickin'
down some walls (G major)
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out (D major)
And walk away without a curtain call (G major)
Tonight (C major) we'll kick the
footlights out again
And try to hide the mood
we're (G major) (C major) in (G major)
I'd not put on our old insulated grin (D major)
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again (G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) (D major)
(G major) (A minor) (G major) (C minor)
I (G major) live the kind of life
that (C major) most men only dream (G major) of
I (C major) (G major) make my living writing these (D major) songs
And sending them down (G major) to Hank Jr.
But I'm 41 years old
and I ain't (C major) got no place to
go when it's over (G major)
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out
(D major) And walk away without a curtain
