Overnight Success

A D E A  A D E A  A

A                D
I'll be drinkin'  cold coffee
E             A
At a diner in Baton Rouge
A                   D
I got a show there,  out of nowhere
E                   A
Then we gotta drive straight on through
A           D
To Oklahoma  and Arizona
E                 A
What's a thousand miles or two
A              D
For a big star  in an old car?
E
This is all a dream come true

        A                   D
        I've been livin' on easy street
             E                 A
        It's all worked out so perfectly
        A                     D
        It's just part of the life I guess
              E            A    A
        Of an overnight success

A                 D
There's a man out  in California
E                    A
Says he's got a good deal for me
A                D
I might take it,  I wanna make it
E               A
Even if I gotta play for free
A                  D
It's a small price  for the big time
E                           A
He told me this is just the break I need
A                    D
He can't be serious,  must be delirious
E
I wouldn't give it up for anything
        A                   D
        I've been livin' on easy street
             E                 A
        It's all worked out so perfectly
        A                     D
        It's just part of the life I guess
              E            A    A
        Of an overnight success
