[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
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.
                                                                     C
