As recorded by The Mavericks (From the 2024 Album MOON & STARS) [Intro] G C D7 G C D7 G [Verse 1]
G                  C
I've been drinking cold coffee

D7            G
At a diner in Baton Rouge

                    C
I got a show there, out in nowhere

D7                  G
Then we gotta drive straight on through

             C
To Oklahoma, then Arizona

D7                G
What's a thousand miles or two

               C
For a big star in a old car

D7
This is all a dream come true
[Chorus]
G                   C
I've been living on easy street

     D7                G
It's all worked out so perfectly

                      C
It's just part of the life, I guess

      D7          G
Of an overnight success
[Interlude] G C D7 G C D7 G [Verse 2]
G                 C
There's a man out in California

D7                    G
Says he's got a great deal for me

                 C
I might take it, I wanna make it

D7              G
Even if I gotta play for free

                   C
It's a small price for the big time

D7                       G
Told me this is just the break I need

                     C
He can't be serious, must be delirious

D7
I wouldn't give it up for anything
[Chorus]
G                   C
I've been living on easy street

     D7                G
It's all worked out so perfectly

                      C
It's just part of the life, I guess

      D7          G
Of an overnight success
[Interlude] G C D7 G C D7 G [Guitar Solo] G C D7 G C D7 [Chorus]
G                   C
I've been living on easy street

     D7                G
It's all worked out so perfectly

                      C
It's just part of the life, I guess

   D7          G
An overnight success

        D7          G
Just an overnight success
