Robin Loves to Hear Me Sing
Miller/Ramey


CAPO I


INTRO: D  D/C  D  D/C

D                          G                                    D
I gave up my steady job to stand up here and play all night for free
                                Bm                              A
Step up and take a number for a chance to ride that Music Row machine
        G                                                        D     Bm
Next to all these fancy suits and shiny cars, I must look mighty green
        D                                   A                               D    D/C
And I'd still be on that John Deere tractor now, but Robin loves to hear me sing


CHORUS:
        G                                                        D
I never dreamed that I'd leave Bluefield and my sweet Robin all alone
      A                                              D     D7
But I made my way to Nashville with my guitar and my songs
          G                                                       D     Bm
I used to play out on the front porch while she listened from the swing
         D                                    A                              D
The only reason I ever dreamed these songs up anyway, Robin loves to hear me sing


INTRO


When you're not a star in this town, you don't make enough to make a phone call home
So I'll write another letter just to let her know what ain't been goin' on
And if you never hear me on that radio it won't be the end of me
Yeah I can always play on the front porch, Robin loves to hear me sing


CHORUS


INTRO


BRIDGE:
        G                             F#m
There's nothin' I wouldn't do to make Robin's dreams come true
    Bm                A                  G
Sometimes I think she wants it more than me
                              F#m
So with every song I write, I try with all my might
        Bm               A             G A
For the perfect blend of words and melody

       G                                                   D   Bm
If you never hear me on that radio, it won't be the end of me
           D                               A                      D
Yeah I can always play on the front porch, Robin loves to hear me sing
       G                                                   Bm
If you never hear me on that radio, it won't be the end of me
      D                               A                      D
I can always play on the front porch, Robin loves to hear me sing
