Verse 1
(D major) I was lost in trouble and strife,
I heard a (G major) voice and it (E minor) changed my life
(D major) And now it's a brand new day,
and I (A major) ain't afraid to say
You're not (D major) alone when
you're down and out
And I (G major) think you know who
I'm (E minor) talking about
(D major) When I don't know how I'll get through
I (A major) ask myself (G major) what would (A major) Willie
(D major) do (Dsus4) (D major) (A major)
Verse 2
What would (D major) Willie do, well he'd travel so far with
(G major) nothing but a song and his old (E minor) guitar
And a tour (D major) bus and some semi-trucks,
thirty thirty crew (A major) men and a little bit of luck
Well he loves (D major) all the people,
the ugly and the randy
(G major) If you don't believe me
take a look (E minor) at the family
And they'll (D major) tell you that it's true
When skies (A major) are gray (G major) what would
(A major) Wil (D major) lie do (Dsus4) (D major)
(A major) Well long ago

Verse 3
(D major) he came unto us,
(G major) his words were simple but they went right through us
And the (D major) whole world sang along,
but then they (A major) didn't want to hear his songs
He was gone (D major) and we
thought we'd lost him
But he (G major) grew his hair and he
moved to Austin
And (D major) all of the people smiled,
they came to (A major) hear him sing from miles
Like a miracle (G major) all those (A major)
rednecks and hippies
From New (B minor) York City down (D major)
(G major) to Mississippi
Stood to (D major) gether and raised a brew
When it's (A major) all gone wrong (G major) what
would (A major) Willie (D major) do (G major) (D major) (A major)
Verse 4
(D major) You know sometimes I wonder
when I ain't gettin' nowhere
(G major) What would old Willie do when it all
gets too much to bear (D major)
And I can see him on his
lonely old tour bus
And (A major) he's got his prob
(E minor) lems just (A major) like any of us
Well he'd just take (D major) a deep breath
and then he'd let it all go
(G major) And he'd take another deep breath
and let it all go (D major)
And he'd take another deep
breath...and he'd (A major) hold it
Ah and I bet he'd feel hungry (D major)
in a way that seems strange
Yeah hungry (G major) for all the things
that he just can't change (D major)
Like the time he passed out
in is own bedroom
And his wife sewed him up in the sheets and (A major) beat
him with a broom and he forgave her (D major)
And you think that's rough,
well then the IRS came and they took (G major) away all of his stuff
They took his golf course and his recording (D major) studio,
and he just went out and did another show (A major)
So when it's (G major) all coming down on you
You (A major) better (G major) ask yourself (A major) what
would Wil (D major) lie do (A major)
Verse 5
What would (D major) Willie do,
well he'd take a little time
And (G major) talk to old rooser as he'd drive
on down the line
And there's (D major) millions down that road,
and with a word (A major) he's gonna lighten their load
He loves (D major) all the people no
matter their races
Hell he (G major) even had a hit country
song with Julio Iglesias
And (D major) that ain't easy to do, so when it's (A major) all too much,
(G major) what would Wil (A major) lie
When the (B minor) game gets tough
(G major) what would Wil (A major) lie
When they (B minor) call your bluff
(G major) what would (A major) Willie (D major) do
