[Intro] F Am C G F Am G C G C G C G Am [Verse 1]
F                       Am                  C/B
For 20 odd years I have strummed on guitars

C                           G
5,000 lost flat picks, four fingertip scars

F                    Am        G
I must have broken a million g strings

C           G              C             G
Picking and strumming, and playing these things

C           G                         Am
Banging and tunin', and playing these things.
[Verse 2]
F                                Am                  C/B
And it's been 16 years now that I've written songs

C              G
Over a 100 and still growing strong

F                             Am        G
About drinking and hockey and flying above

C         G           C             G
Again and again about unhappy love

C        G             Am
Over and over, unhappy love.
[Solo] F Am C G F Am G C G C G C G Am [Verse 3]
F                                  Am                  C/B
And it's music for money, but I'll do it for fun

      C                        G
Oh, I know how to do it, it's easily done

F                           Am        G
To stand on a stage doesn't make me afraid

C                G             C          G
I'm comfortable up there, it's gotten me laid

C          G                   Am
It always amazes me when I get paid.
[Verse 4]
F                      Am                  C/B
So here am I doing all that I can do

       C                     G
You're paying, I'm playing, I'm grateful to you

F                        Am        G
Indoors and outdoors, at home and abroad

C             G            C             G
I sing these songs and you people applaud.

C            G                      Am
You haven't changed much, you still applaud.
