I'm No Hank Williams By Corey Smith 7/29/2010 Capo 1 C Am F G twice C Am F G I got a foot in the door and one in the rain C Am F G I’m standing on the threshold of fortune and fame C Am F G Out on a limb, I took that great leap of faith C Am F G Oh I might crash and burn but I might fly away C Am F G Who knows, there’s no telling what tomorrow holds C Am F G And I ain’t got a clue how I made it this far C Am F G With a few country songs on an acoustic guitar C Am F G I ain't that good looking and I’m painfully shy C Am F G I'm not cut out for the spotlight, just an ordinary guy C Am F G F Who sings about a little bit of everything F C F C And I’m no Hank Williams but I’m feeling his pain F C Bb Am G Strung out on a highway somewhere between comfort and shame C Am F G C Am F G Oh and its getting hard to see, its getting hard to see I ain’t got a new car, no mansion on a hill Just a three bedroom house and whole bunch of bills Its hard to get rich when everyone wants a cut And all the family and friends they keep hitting you up For cash … aww, the money burns too fast My wife’s worried sick, afraid that I won’t be true She’s seen all the movies, know what the highway can do But I made a promise, praying my soul to keep So that my little boy won’t be ashamed of me one day Lord, keep these pretty girls away Well I’m no Hank Williams but I’m feeling his pain Stretched out in a back seat, a good man driven to drink Oh and its getting hard to see Bridge: F C Bb F All That I Wanted was my chance to provide Dm C Bb G A song for the ages to leave some good work behind I’m no role model, I’ve got more problems than most Some have called me a genius, but hell I ain’t even close A head full of questions, fumbling and stumbling around Hell I couldn’t even tell you where I’ll be a few months from now And I’m scared cause I’m no where near prepared But I’ve got a foot in the door and one in the rain I'm standing on the threshold of fortune and fame I’ve got no way of knowing how its gonna end I could be shut in or shut out, I guess it all depends on you Well they think I’m cool But I’m no Hank Williams No I’m no Hank Williams But I’m feeling his pain
