G (320003@1) G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) Now the seats are all empty let the roadies take the stage
C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1)Pack it up and tear it down they're the first to come and the last to leave
C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1) G (320003@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C G (320003@1)
Working for that minimum wage they'll set it up in another town
Em (022000@1) Adim7 C (x32010@1) A#dim7
Tonight the people were so fine, they waited there in line
G (320003@1) Em (022000@1) D (xx0232@1) C(hold) (x32010@1) And when they got up on their feet, they made the show
G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1) And that was sweet, but I can hear the sound
C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) Of slamming doors and folding chairs
C (x32010@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C G (320003@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
And that's a sound they'll never know
G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Now, roll them cases out and lift them amps
G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Haul them trusses down and get 'em up them ramps
G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1)'Cause when it comes to moving me
C (x32010@1) D (xx0232@1)You know you guys are the champs
G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1)But when that last guitar's been packed away
C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1)You know that I still want to play
C (x32010@1)So just make sure you've got it all set to go
D (xx0232@1)Before you come for my piano

But the band's on the bus and they're waiting to go
G (320003@1) Em (022000@1) D (xx0232@1) C(hold) (x32010@1) We've got to drive all night and do a show in Chicago
G (320003@1) G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) Or Detroit, I don't know we do so many shows in a row
C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1)And these towns all look the same we just pass the time in our hotel rooms
C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) And wander 'round backstage
C (x32010@1) Till those lights come up and we hear that crowd
D (xx0232@1) And we remember why we came
(Interlude) G G/C C Em C D G C G D G Bm C Em C D G C G D
G (320003@1) Em (022000@1) Now we got country and western on the bus, R & B

We got Richard Pryor on the video
G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1) And we got time to think of the ones we love
C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) While the miles roll away
C (x32010@1) But the only time that seems too short
D (xx0232@1) Is the time that we get to play
G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) People you've got the power over what we do
G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) You can sit there and wait or you can pull us through
G (320003@1) Bm (x24432@1) C (x32010@1) D (xx0232@1) Come along, sing the song you know that you can't go wrong
G (320003@1) G (320003@1)'Cause when that morning sun comes beating down
C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1) You're going to wake up in your town but we'll be scheduled to appear
