Standard (EADGBE)

Everybody called him a living legend

But just being a legend didn't make him a living

 And every day on the job his mind went spinning

Back to twenty years ago and all the shows he was giving

He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go

What he'd give to be on the road and to do another show

 He's a living legend oh how he loved that life

Now he works in the factory and he just drinks beer at night

Some of the younger stars grew up on his music

 And they liked his style so much they decided to use it

 When he heard his songs on the radio he started to lose it

 But when the big money came in he couldn't refuse it

He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go

What he'd give to be on the road and to do another show

 He's a living legend oh how he loved that life

Now he works in the factory and he just drinks beer at night

One day he brought his old guitar to the factory picnic

 And B.J. the country DJ heard him play it

And everybody was still amazed at how well he could still pick

 And they booked him in the Golden Eagle before you could say it

 He's a living legend he's got somewhere to go

He's so glad to be on the road and to do another show

He's a living legend oh how he loves his life

And now he plays his music for the people every night

And now he plays his music for the people every night
