Each of these is played very quickly and timing can be determined pretty easily from
listening to the recording.
The chords are as follows:
CHORUS (the last line starts on Bm and features a walk-down in the Bass note)
[A] You might [C#m]wander f[E]ar
[B]Be a Big Time [A#]Nashville [A]Star
[A] Still it [C#m]never h[A]urts
Bm A* G#* F#* E*
Even when you do your worst *(Play the Bm, open on high E; then play with open A string, then fret 4
on 6th string (G#), then fret 2 on 6th string (F#), then end on E chord)
Each chord in the last line should look like:
[Bm] [A/Bm] [G#/Bm] [F#/Bm] [E]
e|--0--------0----------0---------0------0-----------------------------------| B|--3--------3----------3---------3------0-----------------------------------| G|--4--------4----------4---------4------1-----------------------------------| D|--4--------4----------4---------4------2-----------------------------------| A|--2--------0----------0---------0------2-----------------------------------| E|--x--------x----------4---------2------0-----------------------------------|
This walk-down will also appear in the verses.
VERSE
[E]Well I'm a wheel that's always t[F#m]urning, oh
[F#m]Well I always start out where I en[E]d
[E]And me, I'm like a fire that's always [F#m]burning
But [Bm]oh, [A]how, [G#]time, [F#]flies
Bm A G# F# (Same walk-down from chorus)
Right by the wayside
REPEAT (Choruses change lyrics as well)
