Capo 2

[Verse]
G
Different day, different town, set it up to tear it down
C G
Oh, I ain't been home in almost fifty days

Houston Baton Rouge, poor girl's gotta pay her dues
C G
And the speeder bus is always driving a- way
D G
Oh, I love what I do, but I wonder what I do it all for

[Chorus]
C G
But when I sing, they sing a- long
D C G
I for- get where I am, but I know where I belong
C Em
The reason why I'm standing here
C G/B C
It's not the miles, it's not the pay, it's not the show
G/B Am G
It's not the fame that makes this home, it's the song

[Verse]
G
Her birthday was in Alabama, father's day was in Montana
C G
And on Mother's day I was nowhere near the phone

Every hotel bed feels the same as the last one where I stayed
C G
And it's bending in my sheet and falling asleep alone
D G
Yeah, I love what I do, but I wonder what I do it all for

[Chorus]
C G
But when I sing, they sing a- long
D C G
I for- get where I am, but I know where I belong
C Em
The reason why I'm standing here
C G/B C
It's not the miles, it's not the pay, it's not the show
G/B Am C
It's not the fame that makes this home, it's the song

[Bridge]
Bm Am D
Dolly and Lo retta, maybe some Patsy Cline, I'm so lonesome I could cry

[Chorus]
C/G G
But when I sing, they sing a- long
D C/E D/F# G
I for- get where I am, but I know where I belong
C D Em
The reason why I'm standing here
C G/B C G/B
It's not the ride, it's not the name, it's not just staying in the game
C G/B C
It's not the miles, it's not the pay, it's not the show
G/B Am G
It's not the fame that makes this home, it's the song
