Capo 3
D/F# - 2X0232
G
Livin' in the city
D/F# Em G
Ain't never been my idea of gettin' it on
G D/F#
But the job demands that you make new plans
C G C G
Before your big chance is gone
G
You get a house in the hills
D/F#
You're payin' everyone's bills
C G
And they tell you that you're gonna go far
G
But in the back of my mind,
D/F#
I hear it time after time,
C
"Is that who you really are?"
Chorus:
C D G D/F#
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A.
G7 C
But your mind's on Tennessee
D C G
Lookin' back, I can remember the time
C G
When I sang my songs for free
C D G D/F#
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A.
G7 C
Take a look at everything you own
G D G D C
But now and then, my heart keeps goin' home
Talkin' on the telephone
Settin' up another day of people to meet
You've gotta do what's right
You've gotta spend the night
Stayin' in touch with the street
When you're surrounded by friends
They say the fun never ends
But I guess I'll never figure it out
'Cause in the back of my mind
I hear it time after time
"Is this what it's all about?"
Chorus and fade
