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
