 Friday night he plays that mandolin

G                  D
 People there can't help but care
          C                   D
About the friendly music of a guy who's
G          D            C   D
 Getting by on their applause
    G          D
He's got a song that moves along
             C             D
He's got his local crowd tonight
   G          D              C   D
At Angelina's Family Bar and Grill

    G             D
He's got his heart on his sleeve
    C                  D
The song he plays just living free
G             D          C            D
 But who knows what goes through his mind

Everybody's saying

    G          D
He's got a car, got a scar
      C            D
Like everyone he's got a few but,
G          D             C   D
 Everybody loves that mandolin
G            D
 Got his problems, bills to pay
     C           D
Somehow that boy finds a way
        G     D     C   D
Through paychecks in tip jars

    G             D
He's got his heart on his sleeve
    C                  D
The song he plays just living free
G             D          C            D

   Em               C
Oh he's the kind of guy
    D            G
Who never really wanted fame
    Em               C             D
His feet are planted firmly on the ground
   Em           C           D           G
He never wanted people to remember his name
   Em           C           D
He never wanted word to get around
              D-once
That he found heaven on earth

 G             D
He's got his heart on his sleeve
    C                  D
The song he plays just living free
G             D          C            D
 But who knows what goes through his mind
       G            D
When he plays a song that brings along
C           D
Everybody's saying
G                   D               C
