Intro
[D]
1.I was he[D]ading for the bus
And [G]another one night stand
H[D]e came up all starry eyed
With my p[A]icture in his hand
He [D]said "Mister I know by heart
[G]Every song you do
Wh[D]en I grow up I want to sing
And b[A]e just like you"
2.Then he asked me how I wrote those songs
Where do the words come from
I fumbled for an answer
But I could not think of one
Then I shook his hand as the driver said
"Load up it's time to leave"
And then on the bus I scribbled down
These thoughts that came to me
C.[G]I'm just a bottle that p[A]ours the [D]wine
A f[D]ragile vessel for m[G]elody and r[A]hyme
P[D]ut me on a pedastal I'll f[G]all and shatter every[D] time
'Cause I'm just the bottle[A] that pours the wine
3.Tonight we play another show
Down in San Antone
For all the folks that come to hear
I'll sing a brand new song
It'll tell you where I'm comin' from
More than anything
And I'm gonna give it all I've got
When I stand up there and sing
