I've been drinkin' all day for a livin' 
     C                     G
Been dreamin' 'bout movin' on
G
Seems like every little thing I do
          A7                   D7
They been puttin' in a country song
      G
And I saw you on the TV
        C                 G
Man, is that some kind of joke
         C                        G
You been makin' a killin' off the shoes I'm fillin'
      D7                     G
While I'm sittin' here goin' broke

      C                     G
So as long as we're tradin' favors
         C               G
A little pleasure for my pain
       C              G
Let me stand up there just one time
    A7               D7
And here 'em call my name
       G
An' my friends all think I'm crazy
                          C7
An' my mama wouldn't understand
                    G
But just one time before I die
          D7              G
I want to sit-in with the band

INTERLUDE:
C    G    D7    G    G

       G
Well I know it must be somethin'
     C              G
Your talent or your style
     G
Your hundred dollar blue jeans
        A7             D7
Or your million-dollar smile
            G
But I don't need me no gold records
        C             G
I don't need no limousines
        C                  G
I don't need to tear up my dressin' room
        D7              G
With no Beaumont beauty queens

            C                      G
And I don't care if it’s backwoods country 
        C                     G
I don't care if it's rock and roll
        C                               G
I don't care if it's hummin' through my old tin roof
   A7                D7
Or playin' on the radio
       G
An' my friends all think I'm crazy
                          C7
An' my mama wouldn't understand
                    G
But just one time before I die
          D7              G
I want to sit-in with the band
