Pawn Shop Guitar

G                         D 
Cold Lone Star beer and a half pack of smokes 
       Em                           C 
Oh, is all that they pay me for the songs that I wrote 
G                           D 
Here in this bar, well, the owner can?t pay  
        Em                     C 
Cause nobody came to see me or hear me play 
 
 
Chorus: 
D                      Em 
Writin these songs and singing all these lines 
C             D   
Over and over hundreds of times  
    G                D 
Ill never be pretty I wont get far 
     C                        D            G 
Just writing these songs on a pawn shop guitar 
 
 
 
Drove on down to Houston for my next show 
Sometimes don?t it surprise you how the wheels turn slow 
Made it back home without a dollar to pay 
For my gas on down to Stephenville the very next day 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
No I won?t marry a Dixie chick or a movie star 
But I?ll keep on playin? my pawn shop guitar
