C G C/G Pack it up and tear it down. They re the first to come, Em And last to leave. C Em Working for that minimum wage. C G C/G They ll set it up in another town. Em B7 Tonight the people were so fine. C A7 They waited there in line, G Em And when they got up on their feet C G They made the show. Bm And that was sweet but I can hear the sound, C Em Of slamming doors and folding chairs. C D G C/G And that s a sound they ll never know. G C Now roll them cases out and lift them amps. G C Haul them trusses down and get em up them ramps. G Bm Cause when it comes to movin me, C D You know, you guys are the champs. G C But when that last guitar s been packed away, G C Em You know that I still want to play. C Em So just make sure you got it all set to go, D G Before you come, for my piano. G Bm C Em C D G C/G 2x Em B7 But the band s on the bus, C A7 And they re waiting to go. G Em We ve got to drive all night, D C G And do a show in Chicago. G Bm Or Detroit, I don t know, C Em We do so many shows in a row. C D G And these towns all look the same. C We just pass the time in the hotel rooms, G C Em And wander round backstage. C Till those lights come up, Em And we hear that crowd, G D And we remember why we came. G Bm C Em C D G C/G 2x G C Em Now, we got Country & Western on the bus, R & B. C We got Disco and 8-tracks, G And cassettes in stereo. C We ve got rural scenes & magazines, G Em And we ve got truckers on CB. C D And we got Richard Pryor on the video. G C We got time to think of the ones we love, G Em While the miles roll away. C Em But the only time that seems too short, G D Is the time that we get to play. G People you ve got the power, C Over what we do, G You can sit there and wait, C Or you can pull us through. G C Come along, sing the song, G Em C You know that you can t go wrong. G C Cause when that morning sun comes beatin down, G Em You re going to wake up in your town. C Em But we ll be scheduled to appear, D C G A thousand miles away from here. G Em C D G Em C D People stay just a little bit longer. G Em C D G Em C D We want to play ay just a little bit longer. G Em C D Now, the promoter don t mind. G Em C D And the union don t mind. G Em If we take a little time, C D And we leave it all behind, Em And sing (one more song...) G Em C Oh oh, won t you stay ay. D G Em C D Just a little bit longer er-er er. G Em C D Em Please, please, please, say you will. (Say you will.) solo G Em C Oh won t you stay-ay-ay. D G Em C D Just a little bit longer. G Em C Oh-oh, please, please, stay-ay-ay. D G Em C D Just a little bit more. Ay-ee-ay-ee-ay. Wooo! G Em C D Now, the promoter don t mind. G Em C D And the roadies don t mind. G Em If we take a little time, C D And we leave this all behind, Em And sing one more song. G Em C D Set8 http://sites.google.com/site/guitarmusicchordsandlyrics/
