G Bm C Em C D G C/G 2x

G Bm
Now the seats are all empty,
C Em
Let the roadies take the stage.
C G C/G
Pack it up and tear it down.

They re the first to come,
Em
And last to leave.
C Em
Working for that minimum wage.
C G C/G
They ll set it up in another town.
Em B7
Tonight the people were so fine.
C A7
They waited there in line,
G Em
And when they got up on their feet
C G
They made the show.
Bm
And that was sweet but I can hear the sound,
C Em
Of slamming doors and folding chairs.
C D G C/G
And that s a sound they ll never know.

G C
Now roll them cases out and lift them amps.
G C
Haul them trusses down and get em up them ramps.
G Bm
Cause when it comes to movin me,
C D
You know, you guys are the champs.
G C
But when that last guitar s been packed away,
G C Em
You know that I still want to play.
C Em
So just make sure you got it all set to go,
D G
Before you come, for my piano.

G Bm C Em C D G C/G 2x

Em B7
But the band s on the bus,
C A7
And they re waiting to go.
G Em
We ve got to drive all night,
D C G
And do a show in Chicago.
G Bm
Or Detroit, I don t know,
C Em
We do so many shows in a row.
C D G
And these towns all look the same.
C
We just pass the time in the hotel rooms,
G C Em
And wander round backstage.
C
Till those lights come up,
Em
And we hear that crowd,
G D
And we remember why we came.

G Bm C Em C D G C/G 2x

G C Em
Now, we got Country & Western on the bus, R & B.
C
We got Disco and 8-tracks,
G
And cassettes in stereo.
C
We ve got rural scenes & magazines,
G Em
And we ve got truckers on CB.
C D
And we got Richard Pryor on the video.
G C
We got time to think of the ones we love,
G Em
While the miles roll away.
C Em
But the only time that seems too short,
G D
Is the time that we get to play.

G
People you ve got the power,
C
Over what we do,
G
You can sit there and wait,
C
Or you can pull us through.
G C
Come along, sing the song,
G Em C
You know that you can t go wrong.
G C
Cause when that morning sun comes beatin down,
G Em
You re going to wake up in your town.

C Em
But we ll be scheduled to appear,
D C G
A thousand miles away from here.

G Em C D G Em C D
People stay just a little bit longer.
G Em C D G Em C D
We want to play ay just a little bit longer.
G Em C D
Now, the promoter don t mind.
G Em C D
And the union don t mind.
G Em
If we take a little time,
C D
And we leave it all behind,
Em
And sing (one more song...)

And sing one more song.
