Hank Williams Jr. - The nashville scene

The ^Dstreets are paved with tourists And the ^Grecord company flourshed ^CLord knows every singer wants to be the ^Dking But some of'em couldn't take it ^GAnd some good ones didn't make it ^CThat's the way it goes ^Gon the Nashville ^Dscene

^DNow there's a whino on the corner He was a ^Gwell known guitar picker ^CTill he got burned out by the ^Dgame Now he'll bum you for some whiskey And ^Gtell ya how it was ^CBack in 52 ^Gwhen he played for ^DHank

And ^CI'm watchin' the ^Gsun go down this ^Devenin' And ^Csoon it'll wake this ^Gtown that's made on ^Ddreams But ^Cbefore it does a ^Gnew star will be ^Bbshinin' That's the way ^Cit is on the Nashville ^Dscene

From the ^Doutside it;s a castle From the ^Ginside its a prison Its ^Ceasy to live way beyond your ^Dmeans And it's a long long way to the top And even ^Gfurther when you drop And ^CI've been on both ^Gends of the Nashville ^Dscene

And ^CI'm watchin' the ^Gsun go down this ^Devenin' And ^Csoon it'll wake this ^Gtown that's made on ^Ddreams But ^Cbefore it does a ^Gnew star will be ^Bbshinin' ^CLightin' up the Nashville ^Dscene

Yeah and I'm ^Cstandin here as the ^Gsun goes down this ^Devenin' And ^Csoon it'll wake this ^Gtown that's made on ^Ddreams But ^Cbefore it does a ^Gnew star will be ^Bbshinin' Lightin' ^Cup the Nashville ^Dscene

Lightin' ^Cup the ole Nashville ^Dscene
