Capo 1
C Am F G twice
I got a [C]foot in the [Am]door [F]and one in the [G]rain
I?m [C]standing on the [Am]threshold of [F]fortune and [G]fame
[C]Out on a [Am]limb, I took that [F]great leap of [G]faith
Oh I [C]might crash and [Am]burn but I [F]might fly a[G]way
Who [C]knows[Am], there?s no [F]telling what to[G]morrow holds
And I [C]ain?t got a [Am]clue how I [F]made it this [G]far
With a [C]few country [Am]songs on an a[F]coustic gui[G]tar
[C]I ain't that good [Am]looking and I?m [F]painfully [G]shy
I'm not [C]cut out for the [Am]spotlight, just an [F]ordinary [G]guy
Who [C]sings[Am] about a [F]little bit of [G]every[F]thing
[F]And I?m no Hank [C]Williams[F] but I?m feeling his [C]pain
[F]Strung out on a [C]highway [Bb]somewhere between [Am]comfort and [G]shame
Oh and its getting hard to see,[C] [Am] [F]its getting [G]hard to see[C][Am][F][G]
I ain?t got a new car, no mansion on a hill
Just a three bedroom house and whole bunch of bills
Its hard to get rich when everyone wants a cut
And all the family and friends they keep hitting you up
For cash ? aww, the money burns too fast
My wife?s worried sick, afraid that I won?t be true
She?s seen all the movies, know what the highway can do
But I made a promise, praying my soul to keep
So that my little boy won?t be ashamed of me one day
Lord, keep these pretty girls away
Well I?m no Hank Williams but I?m feeling his pain
Stretched out in a back seat, a good man driven to drink
Oh and its getting hard to see
Bridge:
[F]All That I [C]Wanted [Bb]was my chance to pro[F]vide
[Dm]A song for the [C]ages[Bb] to leave some good work be[G]hind
I?m no role model, I?ve got more problems than most
Some have called me a genius, but hell I ain?t even close
A head full of questions, fumbling and stumbling around
Hell I couldn?t even tell you where I?ll be a few months from now
And I?m scared cause I?m no where near prepared
But I?ve got a foot in the door and one in the rain
I'm standing on the threshold of fortune and fame
I?ve got no way of knowing how its gonna end
I could be shut in or shut out, I guess it all depends on you
Well they think I?m cool
But I?m no Hank Williams
No I?m no Hank Williams
But I?m feeling his pain
