D
Well a nieve kid from lost small town
A
With a dream of becoming a star
G
Left his home and his friends and his family
D A
In a search that would take him afar.
 

D
Well he thumbed his way to the west coast
A
Became the front man in a band
G
Well, his records sold, and he was the toast
D A
In the land of the golden sand 

G
But, when the lights grew dim something
tortured him
A
And, he could not find his way
G
Something called to him from a distant place
A
And, he found that he could not stay.

 

D
And, a lost young man from a lost small town
A
Made his way to the eastern seaboard
G
And, he found a life of fortune and fame
D A
It was clear that he could go far.

D
Well, he worked the bars with another band
A
All the people were loving him
G
Well, his records sold, he was rollin’ in doe
D A
And, the offers were coming in
 

G
But, when the lights grew dim something
tortured him
A
And, he could not find his way
G
Something called to him from a distant place
A
And, he found that he could not stay.

D
Well, his car broke down in a lost small town
A
Somewhere south of the Mason-Dixon line.
G
And, a small town girl showed him the light
D A
He had finally found his way

D
Now his days are filled with the light of his life
A
With his woman and his kids
G
And, the dreams he had of being a star D A
They were lost along the way
 

G
But when the lights grow dim nothing tortures
him
A
And, he finds that he doesn’t need
G
All the lights and the glamour of the hustling
crowd
A
All he needed was his family
