A Backstage Pass

           D
There were wackoes and weirdoes
    A
And dingbats and dodoes
    E
And athletes and movie stars
    A
And David Allan Coe
          D
There was leather and lace
          A
And every minority race
       E                           
With a backstage pass to the Willie
        A
 Nelson Show


[Verse 1]
    A                           
Kristofferson got an offer for a 
 E
movie
                                 A
Promoters closed another deal or two
Waylon got a call from his son 
D
Shooter
    B                              
And he went home the minute he was 
E
through
A                            E
I moved with the mob at intermission
To the green room where you see who 
        A
you can see
There were has-been's and would-be's
     D
 and never-were's

A                 E               
Paupers punks and millionaires and 
 A
me


[Chorus]
               D
And there were wackoes and weirdoes
    A
And dingbats and dodoes
    E
And athletes and movie stars
    A
And David Allan Coe
          D
There was leather and lace

[Verse 2]
      A                            
Hells Angels blocked the traffic to
     E
 the building
In order for the beer truck to come 
A
through
And waitin' in the wings to sing 
     D
with Willie
     B                          
Were hopeful stars of flickering 
      E
magnitude
            A                      
There was a singer Willie knew back
        E
 in the fifties
Who once paid him fifty dollars for 
  A
a song
There were women who once did and 
         D
some who still would
  A                  E         
I heard one ask "did Connie come 
   A
along ?"


[Chorus]
               D
And there were wackoes and weirdoes
    A
And dingbats and dodoes
    E
And athletes and movie stars
    A
And David Allan Coe
          D
There was leather and lace
          A
And every minority race
       E
