Chords

G           D           G
I can't see nothin' but spotlights

C                          G
Spotlights see nothin' but me
All of my music is lonely
      A                         D
Yeah, all of my heartaches were free

G                D                  G
Don't waste your time or your flash bulbs

C                   G
Too many heroes are dead

C                       G    Em
You like to live in the city

A                          D
Yeah, I like to live in my head
[Chorus]
C        D              G
Somebody shoot out that spotlight

C                            G
Spotlights ain't nothin' but jive
Roll me a smoke, and give me some coke
A                  D
Treat me like I am alive

G            D          G
Tell all the ladies I'm single

C                            G
Tell lone star beer that I'm dry

C                     G      Em
Everyone's lyin' bout livin'

D          C         G
Everyone's livin' a lie

G           D           G
I spend my night times in mournin'

C                          G
I spend my morning's alone

                                 Em
You spent your money to see me tonight

A                              D
Yeah, I spent all mine gettin' stoned.

G                D          G
Now that they're both kinda busted

C                     G
Doesn't it seem kinda strange

       C                      G             Em
That I lay down knowing we're two of a kind

    A                            D
And you'll leave here knowing my name
[Chorus]
C         D              G
Somebody shoot out that spotlight

C                            G
Spotlights ain't nothin' but jive
Roll me a smoke, and give me some coke
A                  D
Treat me like I am alive

G            D          G
Tell all the ladies I'm single

C                            G
Tell lone star beer that I'm dry

C                     G      Em
Everyone's lyin' bout livin'

D            C        G
I'm tired of livin' a lie

C                     G      Em
Everyone's lyin' bout livin'

D            C        G
I'm tired of livin' a lie
