Verse 1:
A
She could dance and she could sing
She left Texas with her dreams
E
She swore that she could make it on her own
Verse 2:
E
She was young and she was fine
She had looks and she had time
A
And the feelings of a woman fully grown
Verse 3:
A
She hit Nashville like a storm
As soft as she was warm
D
Knowin' she'd be discovered any day
Verse 4:
D
But the things she did the best
A
Was her overnight success
E A
And the singing just got lost along the way
Chorus:
D A
Baby sings the blues down on Broadway
E A
Singing from bottom of her heart
D A
Baby sings the blues down on Broadway
E A
Then cries herself to sleep there in the dark
Verse 5:
A
From a blessing to a curse
Things just went from bad to worse
E
Life at night worked out the way she planned
Verse 6:
E
And although her dreams were gone
She just couldn't go back home
A
To a town she knew that would not understand
Chorus(x2).
