INTRO: [D] [G] [D] [G]
I [D]work at the Big Star on [G]North 40[D]5
I make [G]6 bucks an hour and I [A]work steady [D]nights
Well it [D]might not be much, but its [G]all that I [D]need
In that [G]little glass booth, in that [A]highway to [D]dreams [G] [D]
I [D]was not that good of a [G]student in [D]school
But this [G]life taught me lessons that [A]made me no [D]fool
Oh my [D]mum and dad raised me by [G]that golden [D]rule
In a [G]world that gets ruthless, a [A]world that gets [D]cruel
CHORUS:
Fill her [D/F#]up, let me check your [G]oil sir.
Cash your [D/F#]card and let me get your [G]change.
Just turn [D/F#]right and when you see that [G]big church sign,
Just go [G]straight and [A]you'll be on your [D]way [G]
I [D]had me a girl once and [G]my ring she [D]wore
But her [G]father said she could not [A]see me no [D]more
Oh I [D]know it'd be different if [G]I weren't so [D]poor
So I'm [G]writing these songs trying to [A]open some [D]doors
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL: [G] [D] [G] [Asus] [A] (x2)
[D] [G] [D]
Well [D]that's enough crying o[G]ver used to [D]be's
Got to [G]write these songs, get that [A]girl back to [D]me.
I'm a [D]man with conviction, I've [G]got things to [D]do.
When that [G]sun starts risin', [D/F#]
Oh, when that [G]sun starts risin' [Asus]
My night [A]shifts are [D]through.
CHORUS
Just go [G]straight and [A]you'll be on your [D]way [G]
I [D]work at the Big Star on [G]North 40[D]5
