[Intro] G
G C G
1.There was a brand new stranger at the old bus station
D G
He said Music City is my destination
C D
He said the whole wide world's gonna sing my songs
G C
And you can take that to the bank
Because...
G C
I'm on a mission
G C
I'm on a mission
G D G
I'm on a mission from Hank
2.He got a furnished room and a job at the market
He kept a little notebook in his back pocket
And every time you'd see him he was writing a song,
And he'd never leave one page blank
He'd say...
C .
G Csus C Dsus D G
B1.Well, he sang when no one would listen
Csus C Em D
So, he sang until they hung on every word
3.But then one day his phone started ringing
They said we want you and the songs you've been singing
And the kid said fine just give me some time
To talk to my patron saint
You see...
C .
B2.That night as he laid in the darkness
Old Luke the Drifter came to him and said
4.Now here's your chance boy go on and take it
Just sing from the heart and you're gonna make it
But if anybody tries to change you
Into something that you ain't
You tell them...
C .
