Key:
G C Everybody called him a living legend
D But just being a legend didn't
G make him a living And every day on the job his mind
C went spinning
D Back to twenty years ago and all
G the shows he was giving
G Am He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go
C D What he'd give to be on the road
C D and to do another show
G Am He's a living legend oh how he loved that life
C D Now he works in the factory and
C D G he just drinks beer at night
G Some of the younger stars grew up
C on his music
Continues after the ad
D And they liked his style so much
G they decided to use it When he heard his songs on the radio
C he started to lose it
D But when the big money came in he
G couldn't refuse it
G Am He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go
C D What he'd give to be on the road
C D and to do another show
G Am He's a living legend oh how he loved that life
C D Now he works in the factory and
C D G he just drinks beer at night
G One day he brought his old guitar
C to the factory picnic
D And B.J. the country DJ heard him
G play it
G And everybody was still amazed at
C how well he could still pick
D And they booked him in the Golden
G Eagle before you could say it
G Am He's a living legend he's got somewhere to go
C D He's so glad to be on the road
C D and to do another show
G Am He's a living legend oh how he loves his life
C D And now he plays his music for the
C D G people every night
Am D And now he plays his music for the
C D G people every night
