Same Old Song by Kris Kristofferson
Same Old Song
[Intro]
D
D
I was just a young man, workin' steady in a good time band
Bm E A
Pickin' every single little lick I could, just to please the man
D G D
Harlan sang the lead for half and we split up the rest
C G D
Hangin' on thru the heavy times and hopin' for the best
G A A/G D
I can't recall the names of all them places that we played in
A G D
All them squirrely party girls and pills we used to pop
G A A/G D Bm
Hardly ever sleepin' in them cheap motels we stayed in
E A
Hopin' we could take it 'til we'd make it to the top
[Chorus]
D G
And them nights got a little bit brighter
A D
And them bars got a little bit better
G
And the sweet just a little bit sweeter
A D
But them blues.....are still the still old song
(KEY CHANGE TO E)
E
Now we're stars shinin' on them prime time TV shows
C#m F# B
Every stranger knows our name and every little where we go
E A E
Findin' out the bottom ain't so different from the top
D A E
Just a few more friends you'd be losin' when you drop
A B B/A D
And I left some of my soul on every sweaty sheet that I could sleep on
B A D
Gettin' just as close to anybody as I could
A B B/A E C#m
I don't regret a single bet I've laid my body down on
F# B
Ever since the first I had, the worst I had was good
[Chorus]
E A
And them nights get a little bit brighter
B A
And them bars get a little bit better
E A
And the sweet just a little bit sweeter
B E D A E
But them blues......well it's still the same old song
