Standard tuning on this one
Intro: G, Cadd9,  Dx2
(Em7) I'm tired of this (D) 9 to 5
(Cadd9) 8 hours feeling like over time
And my (Em7) mind's reminding me (D), I got a show (Cadd9) tonight
(Em7) Getting home, it's al(D)ready 8:30
My (Cadd9) strings are old and man, my clothes are dirty
(Em7) And jimmy's always (D) late, so man I'm right on (Cadd9) time
(D) There's a little old college bar right off of (Em7) old 129
Said (D) they'd pay me just a little bit of money
To (Cadd9) sing my songs tonight
Chorus:
(G) It's 10:00, get ready to rock, let's (Cadd9) roll
Give me the beat boys, and free my (Em7) soul
Play it (D) all from skynyrd to (Cadd9) Jones
And some of my own
(G) 5'10 with a suntan and southern (Czadd9) drawl
In the front row singing (Em7) along
Yeah it's (D) all about the country (Cadd9) sound
Yeah, we're gonna rock this (G) town
(Em7) Sweet home to (D) brown eyed girl
(Cadd9) Trying my best to remember the words
And there's (Em7) always some drunk in the (D) back
Screaming out Free (Cadd9) Bird
(Em7) Take a break, and (D) head to the bar
(Cadd9) Shake a couple hands, got me feeling like a star
And I (Em7) know it's the bottle (D) talking, but hell I don't (Cadd9) mind
(D) Ya'll I aint cose to fame
But I (Em7) love to play and sing
(D) And this may be a honkey tonk bar
But (Cadd9) I'm still living a dream
Chorus again
Intrumental is the intro twice
Chorus again
For the outro, play the intro twice
