Chords with lyrics

The Nashvile Scene
Hank Williams Jr., Tony Stampley, Buck Moore

Bb majorBb C majorC D MajorD Bb majorBb C majorC D MajorD

  D MajorD
The streets are paved with tourists
    G+G
And the record company flourshed
C majorC                    D MajorD
Lord knows every singer wants to be the king
But some of'em couldn't take it
G+G
And some good ones didn't make it
C majorC           G+G        D MajorD
That's the way it goes on the Nashville scene

D MajorD
Now there's a whino on the corner
     G+G
He was a well known guitar picker
C majorC               D MajorD
Till he got burned out by the game
Now he'll bum you for some whiskey
  G+G
And tell ya how it was
C majorC     G+G         D MajorD
Back in 52 when he played for Hank

  C majorC        G+G        D MajorD
And I'm watchin' the sun go down this evenin'
  C majorC          G+G          D MajorD
And soon it'll wake this town that's made on dreams
  C majorC        G+G        Bb majorBb
But before it does a new star will be shinin'
        C majorC           D MajorD
That's the way it is on the Nashville scene

     D MajorD
From the outside it;s a castle
     G+G
From the inside its a prison
  C majorC              D MajorD
Its easy to live way beyond your means
And it's a long long way to the top
     G+G
And even further when you drop
  C majorC         G+G           D MajorD
And I've been on both ends of the Nashville scene

  C majorC        G+G        D MajorD
And I'm watchin' the sun go down this evenin'
  C majorC          G+G          D MajorD
And soon it'll wake this town that's made on dreams
  C majorC        G+G        Bb majorBb
But before it does a new star will be shinin'
C majorC             D MajorD
Lightin' up the Nashville scene

       C majorC          G+G         D MajorD
Yeah and I'm standin here as the sun goes down this evenin'
  C majorC          G+G          D MajorD
And soon it'll wake this town that's made on dreams
  C majorC        G+G        Bb majorBb
But before it does a new star will be shinin'
     C majorC        D MajorD
Lightin' up the Nashville scene

     C majorC          D MajorD
Lightin' up the ole Nashville scene
