INTRO . . .
Dad-dy won a ra-di-o
He tuned it to a coun-try show
I was rock-ing in the cra-dle to
the cry-ing of a steel - gui-tar
Ma-ma used to sing to me
She taught me that sweet har-mo-ny
Now she wor-ries
'cause she nev-er thought
I'd ev-er real-ly take it this far
Sing-ing in the bars and
Chas-in' the ne-on rain-bow
Liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
'Cause all I've ev-er wan-ted
is too pick this gui-tar and sing
Just tryin' to be some-bod-y
Just wan-na be heard and seen
I'm chas-in' that ne-on rain--bow
- Liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
An at-las and a cof-fee cup
Five pick-ers in an old - Dodge truck
Head-ing down to Hou-ston for
a show on Sat-ur-day night
This - o-ver-head is kill-ing me
Half the time I sing for free
But when the crowd's in-to it
Lord it makes this thing
I'm do-ing seem right
Stand-ing in the spot-light
Chas-in' that ne-on rain-bow
I'm liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
'Cause all I've ev-er wan-ted
is too pick this gui-tar and sing
Just tryin' to be some-bod-y
Just wan-na be heard and seen
I'm chas-in' that ne-on rain--bow
- Liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
Dad-dy's got a ra-di-o
He won it thir-ty years - a-go
He said 'Son I just now we're gon-na
hear you sing-ing on it some day
I made - it up to Mu-sic Row
Lord--y don't the wheels - turn slow
But I would-n't trade a min-ute
I would-n't have it an-y oth-er way
Just show me to the stage
I'm chas-in' that ne-on rain-bow
Liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
'Cause all I've ev-er wan-ted
is too pick this gui-tar and sing
Just tryin' to be some-bod-y
Just wan-na be heard and seen
I'm chas-in' that ne-on rain--bow
- Liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
I'm chas--in' that ne-on rain-bow
- Liv-in' that honk-y tonk dream
