Verse 1
(G major) (E flat major) (D major) Well,
(G major) (E flat major) (D major) you (G major) don't mess around
with the (E flat major) boys in the (D major) band
You (G major) do nothing more than to (E flat major) hold their hand
(D major) The (G major) best thing to be is to
(C major) be their (C sharpdim) buddy
(D major) Anything more and the water gets muddy
And you (G major) never give your heart
to the (E flat major) leader of the band
(D major) Even (G major) if you know he's the (E flat major) only man
(D major) Who can (G major) turn you overnight
from a (C major) lady to a (C sharpdim) swinger
That (D major) is the life of a (G major) country girl singer (E flat major) (D major) (G major)
(E flat major) Well (D major) you (G major) learn to play poker
and a (E flat major) little bit of gin
(D major) You (G major) get proposition but
you (E flat major) nev er give in (D major)
You (G major) might tell jokes just
(C major) a little off col (C sharpdim) or
But (D major) never get close to their
wives and mothers
And you (G major) tote your own luggage,
you (E flat major) buy a round of (D major) drinks
And (G major) never complain if the (E flat major) motel stink (D major) s
You (G major) go to a party
but you're (C major) not allowed to (C sharpdim) linger
And (D major) that is the life of a
(G major) country girl singer
People (C major) ask you
how you get a foot in the door
Tell (G major) them all you know
and they want it no more
You (C major) never have a life
completely your own
You (D major) might own a mansion
but you're never at home (F sharp major) (A major)
(D major) Well you try (G major) to dress
so your fans (E flat major) will approve
(D major) Well (G major) deep inside you know
(E flat major) it's not really (D major) you
It's (G major) hard to start a decent (C major) family life
(C sharpdim) Cause (D major) every man you meet
already has a wife
But (G major) I wouldn't trade it for
(E flat major) Rock efeller's (D major) name
Unless, (G major) of course, he (E flat major) offered the same (D major)
(G major) Maybe someday there'll be a
(C major) ring on my fin (C sharpdim) ger
But till (D major) then it's the life of a
(G major) country girl singer
People (C major) ask you
how you get a foot in the door
Tell (G major) them all you know and
they want no more
You (C major) never have a life completely your own
You (D major) might own a mansion,
but you're never at home (F sharp major) (A major) (D major)
Well, but (G major) I wouldn't trade it for
(E flat major) Roc -A -Pella's (D major) name
Unless, (G major) of course, he (E flat major) offered the same
(D major) May (G major) be someday there'll
be a (C major) ring on my finger
But till (D major) then, it's the life of
a (G major) country girl singer
Well, (E flat major) you've asked (D major) me all these (G major) years
For all this advice (E flat major) I can give (D major) you
But (G major) one thing I can tell you, honey
(E flat major) Forget (D major) about a (G major) love life
Cause (E flat major) you're not in one (D major) place
long (G major) enough to get acquainted
(E flat major) An (D major) d I'll tell (G major) you those
thousand mile (E flat major) jumps
between (D major) dates
(G major) With a midnight (E flat major) show
an (D major) d a (G major) matinee the next day
It's (E flat major) a lot easi (D major) er on
these big (G major) buses
They're crowded (E flat major) but they're comfortable
(D major) A lot (G major) better than those cars
and U (E flat major) -Haul trailers
(D major) Of (G major) course if you can go to work
with a guy (E flat major) that has (D major) a Learjet
(G major) It's a lot easier, a lot bet (D major) ter
(G major) Don't ever live upstairs (E flat major) either,
man
(D major) When that luggage (G major) gets heavy, (D major)
(G major) I can't think (E flat major) (D major) of a whole lot
(G major) more to tell you at (E flat major) this point. (D major)
(G major) You'll learn it (E flat major) if you get in (D major) the business.
(G major) Just practice a lot. (G major)
Whatever, you can (D major) take
that in what you want to.
