Common Man 
By John Conlee 
 

G                              C
As the Maid poured wine and we began to dine 
  D                         G
I knew I was feeling out of place 
     G                   C
At a table as large as a river barge 
    D                              G
And I love you written all on your face 
  C
I appreciate you hospitality 
      G                  D
But I wish that we would go 
       G                              C
Let me drive us to McDonalds and I'll talk to you 
           D                           G
Concerning somethin’ you should really know 

Chorus:
           G
I'm just a common man 
        C
Drive a common van 
   G                   D  
My dog ain't got a pedigree 
     G
If I have my say 
      C
Gonna stay that way 
      G                       Em 
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity 
      G      D                G
And a common man is what I'll be 

 
I'll take a Chevrolet just anyday 
So give your Daddy back his Mercedes Benz 
And there's some common people I hang out with 
They're my good time buddies, they're my friends 
And I'd rather chug-a-lug a mug of Budweiser Beer 
Than sip a crystal glass of wine 
So won't you make your mind up to believe in me 
And leave this high living world behind 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge:
        C                Am 
Yes I'm happy just being free 
        C                Am
And I'm happy just being me 
      C                  D
And I hope that you will see 
 
Chorus
