INTRO
C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G
C majorC
Back before I was a movie star
G+G
Straight off of the farm
D MajorD
I had a picture of another man's wife
G+G
Tattooed on my arm
C majorC
With a pack of Camel cigarettes
G+G
In the sleeve of my tee shirt
D MajorD
I'm headin' out to Hollywood
G+G
Just to have my feelings hurt
C majorC
That town will make you crazy
G+G
Just give it a little time
D MajorD
You'll be walking 'round in circles
G+G
Down at Hollywood and Vine
C majorC
You'll be waitin' on a phone call
G+G
At the wrong end of a broom
D MajorD
Yes, that town'll make you crazy
G+G
Crazy as a loon
C majorC
So, I headed down to Nashville
G+G
To become a country star
D MajorD
Every night you'd find me hangin'
C majorC
At every honky-tonk and bar
C majorC
Pretty soon I met a woman
G+G
Pretty soon she done me wrong
D MajorD
Pretty soon my life got sadder
G+G
Than any country song
C majorC
That town will make you crazy
G+G
Just give it a little time
D MajorD
You'll be walking 'round in circles
G+G
Lookin' for that country rhyme
C majorC
You'll be waitin' on a phone call
G+G
At the wrong end of a broom
D MajorD
Yea, that town'll make you crazy
G+G
Crazy as a loon
D MajorD
Yes, that town'll make you crazy
G+G
Crazy as a loon
INSTRUMENTAL
C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G
C majorC
So, I gathered up my savvy
G+G
Bought myself a business suit
D MajorD
I headed up to New York City
G+G
Where a man can make some loot
C majorC
I got hired Monday morning
G+G
Downsized that afternoon
D MajorD
Overcome with grief that evening
G+G
Now I'm crazy as a loon
C majorC
And I'm up here in the north woods
G+G
Just staring at a lake
D MajorD
Wondering just exactly how much
G+G
They think a man can take
C majorC
I eat fish to pass the time away
G+G
Under that blue Canadian moon
D MajorD
This town'll made me crazy
G+G
Crazy as a loon
D MajorD
Oh Lord, this world has made me crazy
G+G
Just as crazy as a loon
