When I was young I left the home and went away to Vegas
F C
With my guitar and my dreams I had to try to play and sing in Vegas
Am Em Am Em
But my momma told me I was wrong and she begged me to stay at home
F G7 C
But my will was strong and I had to make it big in Vegas
G7 F
They'll put my name up in lights where I play and the lines out in
C G7 F
front will be long I'll get a standing ovation from the people when
C F C
I start to sing my song when I turn 'em on in Vegas
F C
Well I've played every honky tonk and smokey bar in Vegas
F C
And I guess I don't have what it takes for Las Vegas
Am Em Am Em
But my dreams still linger on oh my faith is almost gone
F G7 C
But my will is strong and I've gotta make it big in Vegas
G7 F
They'll put my name up in lights where I play and the lines out in
C G7 F
front will be long I'll get a standing ovation from the people when
C F C
I start to sing my song when I turn 'em on in Vegas
