Chasin' That Neon Rainbow

 G                  C
Daddy won a radio, tuned it to a 
country show
       D                           
I was rockin' in the cradle, to the
  C                 D
 cryin' of a steel guitar
 G                        C
Mama used to sing to me, taught me 
that sweet harmony
         D                     
Now she worries cause she never 
               C                
thought, I'd ever really take it 
        G
this far
 D
Singin' in the bars

Chorus:
 G                          C     
Chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' 
                 G
that honky tonk dream
 G         Bm   Em             A
All I've ever wanted, was to 
                    D
pick this guitar and sing
 C                  G          
Just tryin' to be somebody, just 
    C                  A
wanna be heard and seen
 C            D    G   C    A  
Chasin' that neon rainbow, 
         D          G
Livin' that honky tonk dream

 G                             
An atlas and a coffee cup, five 
 C
pickers in an old Dodge truck
 D                              C 
Headin' down to Houston, for a 
               D
show on Saturday night
      G                       C
This overhead is killin' me, half 
the time I sing for free
              D                    
But when the crowd's into it, lord 
    C                              
it makes this thing I'm doing seem 
 G
alright
 D
Standin' in the spotlight

 G                       C
Daddy's got a radio, he won it 
thirty years ago
         D                         
He said "Son I just know we're 
   C                      D
gonna hear you singin' on it 
someday"
 G                              C
I made it up to Music Row, but lordy
 don't the wheels turn slow
         D                         
Still I wouldn't trade a minute, 
     C                          G
and I wouldn't have it any other way
 D
Just show me to the stage
