GC
Daddy won a radio, tuned it to a country show
DCD
I was rockin' in the cradle, to the cryin' of a steel guitar
GC
Mama used to sing to me, taught me that sweet harmony
DCG
Now she worries cause she never thought, I'd ever really take it this far
D
Singin' in the bars
[Chorus]
GCG
Chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
GD/F#EmAD
All I've ever wanted, was to pick this guitar and sing
CGCA
Just tryin' to be somebody, just wanna be heard and seen
CDGCADG
Chasin' that neon rainbow, Livin' that honky tonk dream
[Solo]

[Verse]
GC
An atlas and a coffe cup, five pickers in an old Dodge truck
DCD
Headin' down to Houston, for a show on Saturday night
GC
This overhead is killin' me, half the time I sing for free
DCG
But when the crowd's into it, lord it makes this thing I'm doing seem right
D
Standin' in the spotlight
[Chorus]
GCG
Chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
GD/F#EmAD
All I've ever wanted, was to pick this guitar and sing
CGCA
Just tryin' to be somebody, just wanna be heard and seen
CDGCADGE
Chasin' that neon rainbow, Livin' that honky tonk dream

AD
Daddy's got a radio, he won it thirty years ago
EDE
He said "Son I just know we're gonna hear you singin' on it someday"
AD
I made it up to Music Row, but lordy don't the wheels turn slow
EDA
Still I wouldn't trade a minute, and I wouldn't have it any other way
E
Just show me to the stage
[Chorus]
ADA
Chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
AA/G#F#mBE
All I've ever wanted, was to pick this guitar and sing
DADB
Just tryin' to be somebody, just wanna be heard and seen
DEADBEA
Chasin' that neon rainbow, Livin' that honky tonk dream
DEADBEA
Chasin' that neon rainbow, Livin' that honky tonk dream
