A Showman’s Life - Gary Allan
E B
A showman’s life is a smokey bar
C#m A
And the fevered chase of a tiny star
C#m A
It’s a hotel room and a lonely wife
E B E
From what I’ve seen of a showman’s life nobody told me about this part
Chorus:
A E
They told me all about the pretty girls
E B E
And the wine and the money and the good times,
A
There’s no mention of all the wear and tear,
C#m B A
On an old honky tonker’s heart
E
Well I might of known it,
B E
But nobody told me about this part
A boy will dream as children do
Of a great white way until the dream comes true
And a phony smile in a colored light
Is all there is to a showman’s life nobody told me about this part
Chorus
But nobody told me about this part
Chorus
Well I might of known it
But nobody told me about this part
