[Intro]
G Bm C D
 
[Verse]
G Bm
You can get a flashy guitar and play in all the best bars
C
But I hope you know how to smile
G Bm
And it'll help if you can shake it cuz that's the way you gotta make it
C D
When you're young and in your prime
 
[Verse]
G Bm
Now It's a fight to tell the truth, its even harder in your youth
C
And no one likes a tune that they've never heard
G Bm
Nobody wants a song, if they can't sing along
C D
So you give them Brown Eyed Girl
 
[Bridge]
C
Now I sure ain't saying this is a prayer worth praying
G
In fact, its something I could never recommend
C
But you won't never have to fear, singing songs folks wanna hear
D
And when you're done, they'll all shout amen
 
C
But it wont have no meaning and them rhymes will be so easy
G Em D
With no message in your songs, well I've heard so many say it
G
You gotta fake it till you make it but you won't be making nothing at all
 
[Interlude]
G Bm C D
 
[Verse]
G Bm
So I'm gonna write a song and call it Freebird for all these assholes hollering
Freebird!
C
And acting like I give a damn
G Bm
I know I'm a crazy hack, I probably won't be invited back
C D
But I wasn't making much anyhow
 
[Verse]
G Bm
And I decided not to sell what little heart that I got left
C
Them gigs would surely kill me in time
G Bm
And I believe I'd rather be poor than sing them songs anymore
C D
Casting my pearls before these swine
 
[Bridge]
C
Now I sure ain't saying this is a prayer worth praying
G
In fact, its something I could never recommend
C
But you won't never have to fear, singing songs folks wanna hear
D
And when you're done, they'll all shout amen
 
C
But it wont have no meaning and them rhymes will be so easy
G Em D
With no message in your songs, well I've heard so many say it
G
You gotta fake it till you make it but you won't be making nothing at all
 
[Outro]
G Bm C D G
