A Showman's Life Teclado

	              E                B  
A showman’s life is a smokey bar 
                C#m             A  
And the fevered chase of a tiny star 
             C#m               A   
It’s a hotel room and a lonely wife 
               E                   B                         E 
From what I’ve seen of a showman’s life nobody told me about this part 

A                          E  
They told me all about the pretty girls 
        E            B             E  
And the wine and the money and the good times, 
           A 
There’s no mention of all the wear and tear, 
      C#m B              A      
On an old honky tonker’s heart 
     E 
Well I might of known it, 
   B                     E 
But nobody told me about this part
 
 
A boy will dream as children do 
Of a great white way until the dream comes true 
And a phony smile in a colored light 
Is all there is to a showman’s life nobody told me about this part 
 
Chorus 
 
But nobody told me about this part 
 
Chorus 
 
Well I might of known it 
But nobody told me about this part
