Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
From 'A Matter of Time'
song is finger picked on album, can also be strummed
[Verse 1]
C F C
Believe it or not I treat it like a job
F C
I got the tools I use I put my boots on
Am G F
A lot of pride in a man who wears a hard hat
C F C
Believe it or not I treat it just like that
F C
Everybody writes songs every day of their lives
F C
But most don’t know what to do with the lines
C/B Am G F
Treat em like strange things in a lost and found
C F C
The difference with me is I write mine down
[Chorus]
F C G Am G
The front side of this old guitar's seen more backsides on stools in bars
F C G
Trying to write something make em turn around
F C G
Try and make em laugh try and be profound
F C G Am G
And all the skills that I’ve aquired qualify me for changing tires
F C G
Changing strings and watching the sun come up
F C G
As for the last I think I’ve had enough
Am G F C
But when it comes to this job the most important thing I’ve learned
F G C
Is how to get drunk and not forget the words
[Verse 2]
C F C
People wanna know about the girls and the road
C F C C/B
and all the crazy things that happen after the show
Am G F C F C
somewhere, somehow this myth got around that all we ever do is party with the crowd
F C G Am G
But if you could just picture for a second for me a movie theatre full of empty seats
F C G
And the credits roll and one guy’s picking up trash
F C G
A lot of the time it looks a lot like that
Am G
It aint romantic it’s pretty damn rough
F C
And it’s hardest on the ones you love
F G C
Reciting poetry to a bunch of drunks
[Instrumental]
C F C C F C C/B Am G F C F C
[Verse 3]
F C
We sit up there and we tell jokes
G Am G
Tell stories about the songs we wrote
F C G
And between we take shots, smokes and beers
F C G
Keep in mind this goes on for years
F C
You only get good by going too far
G Am G
Keep track of where in the song you are
F C G
And try to ride the line as close as you can
F C G
What I’m trying to make you understand is
[Chorus]
F C G Am G
The front side of this old guitar's seen more backsides on stools in bars
F C G
Trying to write something make em turn around
F C G
Try and make em laugh try and be profound
F C G Am G
And all the skills that I’ve aquired qualify me for changing tires
F C G
Changing strings and watching the sun come up
F C G
As for the last I think I’ve had enough
Am G F C
But when it comes to this job the most important thing I’ve learned
F G C
Is how to get drunk and not forget the words
F G C
Is how to get drunk
