Tuning: EADGBE Verse 1: C I didn't have much money Am I didn't have a car F I just had my dreams G7 And an old guitar Em Bummed a ride to Nashille Am Tryin' to be a star F
How was I to know G7 I wouldn't get too far Chorus: F But that's the way things go Am That's the way things are F Singin' again in Texas G7 C In a honky-tonk bar Instrumental: Verse 2: C I took my dreams to Nashville Am Thought I'd make a start F But the dreams unravelled G7 And soon they fell apart Em I played my songs on the corners Am They never made the charts F I met a girl from Knoxville G7 But she broke my heart Chorus: F But that's the way things go Am That's the way things are F Singin' again in Texas G7 C In a honky-tonk bar Chorus: F Well, that's the way things go Am That's the way things are F Singin' again in Texas G7 C
