         F                                              C
	Every since the day i was big enough to put my pants on by myself

                   F                                      C
	You could find me somewhere with the radio turned on

              F                               C
	Then one night i gave my heart to an old beat up guitar

         F                     G               C
	It never left my arms till i was almost grown
Verse 2:
           F                                          C
	I had to try my hand as a workin man,tried to be my daddy's son

                F                                    C
	But my mind was packed and gone and headed south

          F                         C
	Momma said i'll pray for you,then she said goodbye

                F               G                    C
	To the only one out of seven that didn't work out
Chorus:
                 F                               C
	Now i'm way down hear in dixie playing honky tonk music

          G                                              C
	Keepin' some joint a jumpin' every night of the week

               F                                         C
	Lord knows it's hard to keep a dance hall women happy

              F                            G                         C
	When you're drinkin' a little too much and you're workin' cheap
Verse 3:
         F                                             C
	Well i ain't done a thing i can brag about to anyone back home

               F                                         C
	Just another night club singer with a real good band

              F                               C
	If a jealous woman don't kill me,and momma keeps on praying

             F              G               C
	Someday i might be more than what i am
Chorus.
              F                            G                         C
	When you're drinkin' a little too much and you're workin' cheap
