Chords

[Verse 1]
        E                 A         E
Well, I woke to the rise, sun going down

                        B
Stale taste of whiskey, fresh on my mouth

E                  A           E
Hot cup of coffee, smoke in my hand

                               B      E
Another day in the life of the guitar man

         A E
La de da
[Verse 2]
                                      A             E
Well last night was a good night as I reached in my jeans

                        B
Crumpled up ones, a few tens in between

      E                           A          E
And a red head named Annie, she's still fast asleep

                                B             E
Made me make her a promise, she knows I can't keep

         A E
La de da
[Verse 3]
                              A         E
Time to fire up that two tone bucket of rust

                                B
Throw my amp and my case in the back of my truck

E                              A              E
Breathing my freedom, with the windows rolled down

                         B             E
Forty-six miles till the next nameless town

         A E
La de da
[Verse 4]
                                      A           E
Well, the place is still empty when I walk in the door

                               B
Stench from the beer, spilling up through the floor

        E                      A         E
Give an eye to sweet Lisa, she mixes the drinks

                                   B            E
Life's been hard on her, but she's been good to me

         A E
La de da
[Verse 5]
E                            A           E
Off in the shadows, stands a stool and a stage

            E                   B
Where many souls before me were put on display

  E                             A             E
I take one last breath, time to pay some more dues

                                 B              E
That won't add up to nothing but tips and cheap booze
[Chorus]
                                         A           E
Yeah, the fruits of my labor is when the crowd sings along

                            B
Nothing short of a savior I go home alone

       E               A              E
I'm an empty, faceless spotlight mike-stand

E
I'll getcha high, I'll getcha low

        B      E   A E
I'm the guitar man
[Verse 6]
                                              A           E
Well they'll ask for more love songs and I'll play with a smile

                        B
To help them hold on or forget for a while

         E                           A               E
They can fill up that jukebox with a week's worth of pay

                                     B                E    A E
But it can't fill their happy and it can't fill their pain
[Verse 7]
                        A     E
No drums, no pianos, no sweet harmonies

                            B
It's all in a song and it's all on me

      E                         A             E
Won't find nothing fancy I'm a tired one man band

                             B      E
I'm the picking and grinning guitar man
[Chorus]
                                         A           E
Yeah, the fruits of my labor is when the crowd sings along

                            B
Nothing short of a savior I go home alone

       E               A              E
I'm an empty, faceless spotlight mike-stand

E
I'll getcha high, I'll getcha low

        B      E   A E B E A E B E
I'm the guitar man
[Verse 8]
                                     A           E
Well I had me a pretty baby, thought she was the one

                              B
But she soon grew tired, this love on the run

E                          A           E
Said she felt second, told me I had to choose

                          B              E   A E
She's back in Georgia and I'm there with you
[Verse 9]
                            A           E
The end of the night, we'll all be best friends

                           B
Then strangers till I roll through town again

     E                           A         E
I'll yell out hey Lisa something cold in a can

                         B      E
One for the road for the guitar man
[Chorus]
                                         A           E
Yeah, the fruits of my labor is when the crowd sings along

                            B
Nothing short of a savior, still I go home alone

       E               A              E
I'm an empty, faceless spotlight mike-stand

E
I'll getcha high, I'll getcha low

        B      E
I'm the guitar man

E                                             B         E   A E
I'll play em fast, I'll play em slow, I'm the guitar... man

E   B E A E B E
Yeah
