D- A- G
[Verse 1]
D
I never liked smoky old bar
A
rooms
G
I never fit in on the edge of bar
A
stool
D
But I play my
A
songs
G
To lovers and broken hearted
D
fools.
[Verse 2]
D
Oh I ain’t rich and
A
famous
G
I just wanna be heard and
A
seen
D
And I ain’t trying to be
A
nobody
G
I just wanna live out this
D
dream
[Verse 3]
D
I don’t have dreams of
A
Nashville
G
I never cared for broadways bright
D
lights
D
But if I can reach one
A
person
G
Then maybe my songs just might
D
save a life
(Spoken)
So I’ll be here all damn night
[Chorus]
D
Oh I pour my heart
A
out
G
Playing songs that nobody’s
D
heard, Oh they like the
A
rhythm
G
But nobody hears my
D
words, Oh I sing my heart
A
out
G
Just to be some old background
D
noise, But I keep on
A
playing
G
Till the good lord takes away my
D
voice, oh I sing my heart
A
out
G
Till the good lord takes away my
D
voice
D
Most nights the crowd
A
noise
G
Drowns out any
D
applause, and I wonder what I’m
A
doing
G
Banging my head against that
D
Wall
[Chorus]
D
Oh I pour my heart
A
out
G
Playing songs that nobody’s
D
heard , Oh they like the
A
rhythm
G
But nobody hears my
D
words , Oh I sing my heart
A
out
G
Just to be some old background
D
noise, but I keep on
A
playing
G
Till the good lord takes away my
D
voice
D
Oh I sing my heart
A
out
G
Till the good lord takes away my
D
voice
