Footlights
Written and recorded by Merle Haggard

G C G
I live the kinda life most men only dream of
D7 G
I make my livin' writin' songs and singin' them
C G
But I'm forty-one years old and I ain't got no place to go when it's over

But I'll hide my age and make the stage
D7 G
And try to kick the footlights out again

C G
I throw my old guitar across the stage and then my bass-man takes the ball
D7 G
And the crowd goes nearly wild to see my guitar nearly fall
C G
After twenty years of pickin' we're still alive and kickin' down the wall
D7 G
Tonight I'll kick the footlights out and walk away without a curtain call

C
Tonight I'll kick the footlights out again
G
And try to hide the mood I'm really in
D7
And put on my old instamatic grin
G
Tonight I'll kick the footlights out again

Repeat #1
