A Showmans Life Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

EA showman?s life Bis a smokey bar

 And the fevered C♯mchase of a tiny Astar

 It?s a hotel C♯mroom and a lonely Awife

 From what I?ve Eseen of a showman?s Blife nobody told me about Ethis part

AThey told me all about the Epretty girls

 And the Ewine and the Bmoney and the Egood times,

 There?s no Amention of all the wear and tear,

 On an C♯mold Bhonky tonker?s Aheart

 Well EI might of known it,

 ButB nobody told me about Ethis part

A boy will dream as children do

Of a great white way until the dream comes true

And a phony smile in a colored light

Is all there is to a showman?s life nobody told me about this part

Chorus

But nobody told me about this part

Chorus

Well I might of known it

But nobody told me about this part
