[Verse 1]
Am C G
Mr. Nashville Man, won't you listen to one of my songs?
Am C G D
I'll get the itch, drink whiskey, and play all night long.
Am C G
Well I ain't a part of your big ol' money machine.
Am C G D
Just a small town boy, with a helpin' of hopes and dreams.
Am C G
Mr. Nashville Man, won't you listen to one of my songs?
Am C G D
I'll hit the road play anywhere, and bring my boys along.
Am C G
'Cause we ain't got no particular place to be.
Am C G D
All we want is a chance, a chance to be heard and seen.
[Chorus]
Am
Mr. Nashville Man.
C
Oh, Nashville Man.
Am C G
Won't you send me a plane and fly me to Tennessee.
Am
Mr. Nashville Man.
C
Oh, Nashville Man.
Am C G
I can make you a dollar, just wait and see.
Am C G (x2)
[Verse 2]
Am C G
Mr. Nashville Man, won't you listen to one of my songs?
Am C G D
We got somethin' good here, they like to sing along.
Am C G
Seen a few things, got a whole lot more to say.
Am C G D
So bring me down to music row, and we'll play all day.
Am C G
Mr. Nashville Man won't you listen to one of my songs?
Am C G D
The stuff you're puttin' out here, man it's all wrong.
Am C G
You turned your back, let us help you find your way.
Am C G D
We'll take you down to Texas, and cleanse your sins away.
[Chorus]
Am
Mr. Nashville Man.
C
Oh, Nashville Man.
Am C G
Won't you send me a plane and fly me to Tennessee.
Am
Mr. Nashville Man.
C
Oh, Nashville Man.
Am C G
You know this ain't the way it's supposed to be.
