Intro.: | (A) | (G) (D) | (A) | (A) | (A) | (G) (D) | (A) | (A)
She opened up the (E)letter (D) from (E)Nashville, Ten-(A)nessee
He said, "Hon, they like my (D)music, (E) the songs I wrote for you and (A)me"
The boys and me just cut a (D)record and it could hit the charts before too (A)long
So it's gonna be a (E)while 'til I can come back (A)home (G) (D) (A)
(Chorus)
Yes, I'm gonna be a (D)country star and everyone will know my (A)name
Ah, you know I love those (E)bright lights when I step on stage to (A)sing (G) (D) (A)
I'll be travlin' 'round the (D)country with a big bus and a (A)band
So just keep the home fires (E)burnin' while I'm gone
And I'll get back home when I (A)can (D) (A)
She said, "Hun, I hear your (E)record, (D) aw, they (E)play it every-(A)day
And everybody really (D)likes it, (E) so I guess your on your (A) way
But darling, please re-(D)member we all need you here at (A)home
And the kids all miss their (E)daddy, so don't be gone (A)too long" (G) (D) (A)
(Chorus)
Yes I know that your a (D)country star and everybody knows your (A)name
And I know you love those (E)bright lights when you step on stage to (A)sing (G) (D) (A)
Just remember we all (D)love you and don't get blinded by the (A)light
We'll just keep the home fires (E)burnin' while you're gone
You know we pray for you each (A)night (G) (D) (A) (Bb) (Ab) (Eb) (Bb)
After six long months of (F)goin', (Eb) I guess the (F)road just finally took it's (Bb)toll
'Cause his songs has lost all (Eb) meaning (F) and he felt so all a-(Bb)lone
Then one night in (Eb)Jackson, he went out on stage to (Bb) play
And the crowd stared at (F)disbelief at the words he had to (Bb)say (Ab) (Eb) (Bb)
(Chorus)
I don't want to be a (Eb)country star, it ain't the way I thought it'd (Bb)be
Well, it took me such a (F)long time to know that it ain't the life for (Bb)me (Ab) (Eb) (Bb)
'Cause the days can get so (Eb)lonely and the nights can get so (Bb)long
Lord, I think it's a-(F)bout time, this country star went (Bb)home (Eb) (Bb)
Yes, I think that it's a-(F)bout time, this country boy went back (Bb)home (Ab) (Eb) (Bb) -----
