Partners, Brothers, And Friends

	  		D                      
The promoter says he wants to cancel  
                                 G 
Cause there ain't enough tickets sold  
    A 
The air conditioner on the bus just broke  
                       D 
and I can't shake this cold  
 
The single lost the bullet,  
                        G 
the singer's losin' his wife;  
       A 
well I might be crazy but I wouldn't change  
                          D 
A single thing about this life.  
 
Sometimes we feel like champions,  
                        G 
sometimes we just can't win,  
     A 
sometimes our records hit the top of the charts  
                        D 
or the discount bargain bins.  
          
Through 20 years of touring  
                                       G 
We've remained partners, brothers, and friends  
   A 
we keep it together cause we're sure  
                                      D 
we're gonna be big time before it all ends.  
         G 
Well you know you've got the Nitty Gritty  
    D 
and Jimmy's got his drums along  
     A 
then Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be  
D 
singing all our favorite songs  
          G 
Catch the fire from the folks in the front row  
        D                       G 
fan the flames as the beat gets strong  
D             F#   B       A         
it's great to be a part of something  
   G           A         D    
so good that's lasted so long  
 
Well I saw a story in the paper  
                        G 
suddenly the band's big news  
    A 
the critics all like our records just fine  
                        D 
but they seem a bit confused  
 
is it folk or rock or country  
                               G 
seems like everybody cares but us  
        A 
so just leave us an early wakeup call  
                     D 
so we don't miss the bus  
 
tabchorus
D G The band says it can't stand my latest song, it's too personal A but my first wife's second marriage blew up D she had to get the dang thing annulled well if that ain't something to sing about G well you tell me what is A and we'll give it a beat and put it on the street D and we just might have another hit
