INTRO: G5 C5 D5 D5 G5 C5 D5 D5
G5 D5 C5 D5
Bobby played his guitar on the harder side of town
G5 D5 C5 D5
Where it's hard for a poor boy to find the money
G5 D5 C5 D5
He had dedication, he had the heart and soul
C5 D5 G5 D5
Somehow knew he was born to play
G5 D5
People would say get a real job
C5 D5
Support your family
G5 D5 C5 D5
Cause there's no future in the road you're taking
G5 D5 C5 D5
He never said a word, the dreamer just kept on
C5 D5 G5 D5
Late at night you could hear him say (he'd say)
Chorus:
G5 C5 D5
I'm gonna be somebody someday
G5 C5 D5
One of these days I'm gonna break these chains
G5 C5 D5 B5
I'm gonna be somebody someday
C5 D5 G5 C5 D5
You can bet your hard earned dollar I will
G5 D5
The road was a struggle
C5 D5
Took him ten years to the top
G5 D5 C5 D5
But now he's number one on the stage and the radio
G5 D5 C5 D5
Still he can't believe how people come from miles around
C5 D5 G5 D5
When it seemed like it was only yesterday, he would say
Chorus
G5 D5
Bobby played his hometown
C5 D5
One fullmoon August night
G5 D5 C5 D5
When he heard a voice in the front row saying
G5 D5
It was a, sandy haired riverboy
C5 D5
With those same old hungry eyes
C5 D5 G5
Looked up at Bobby and said
Chorus
Chorus
C5 D5 GCG5
You can bet your hard earned dollar I will
