A                                      *                                                                         
THERE WAS A TIME WHEN WOMEN WOULD'NT GIVE ME THE TIME OF DAY 
 A                                                                                                 
TILL I BOUGHT A GUITAR AND I TAUGHT MYSELF TO PLAY 
             D                                                                                                         
EVEN MET MY WIFE AT A DINER THAT I PLAYED EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT 
               E                                                                                                              
FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD GO SO WRONG,  SOMETHING'S GOING SO RIGHT 
 
WRITIN' SONGS HAVE GOTTEN ME EVERYWHERE 
NORTH, SOUTH, EAST AND WEST 
JUST DOING WHAT I LOVE TO DO 
FOR ME DEFINES SUCCESS 
'CAUSE I'M PLAYIN' FOR YOU PEOPLE 
AND YOU'RE SITTIN', LISTENIN' TO MY SONGS 
I SWEAR WHEN EVERYTHING GOES RIGHT 
(I FEEL LIKE) NOTHIN' CAN GO WRONG 
 
(Chorus) 
      D                   
FROM AUSTIN UP TO NASHVILLE AND ALL POINTS IN BETWEEN 
 A                                                 *                                         
MUSIC SOOTHES THE SAVAGE BEAST THAT'S INSIDE YOU AND ME 
       D                                                                                                                 
GUESS YOU CAN CALL ME LUCKY IN THIS ROLLERCOASTER SONGWRITER LIFE 
        E                        D                        A                          
FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD GO SO WRONG, SOMETHINGS GOING SO RIGHT 
 
NOW YOU'VE LISTENED TO MY STORY AND I THINK YOU WILL AGREE 
THERE ARE NO LIMITATIONS TO THE THINGS WE'LL HEAR AND SEE 
SO I MADE MYSELF A PROMISE THAT I'D NEVER KEEP MY SONG INSIDE 
FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD GO SO WRONG, SOMETHING'S GOING SO RIGHT 
(Chorus - repeat last line, END)
