As Big a Star
By Peter Dawson

Capo 2

D                                D7
I used to lie in bed at night, I tossed and turned to think
      G                                Gm
About singin’ on that big stage, I was just on the brink
            D                     A
Of fame and fortune, drivin’ me a fancy car
              D                                   D7
But I'm still drivin’ that old pick up, I'm still singin’ in them bars
        G                       Gm          
I don’t have a million dollars, just this old guitar
        D                                         A
and the songs I sing But I pour my heart out in a melody


Chorus:
         G                   A              D
It don’t break my heart that I'm not on the Opry
   G             A                  D
As long as I can touch folks when I sing
G              A       Bm              E7       
Dalhart to Del Rio and all points in between
        G             A            D
It’s as big a star as I ever wanna be


Well it’s two in the morning and everybody’s gone
I count the money from that tip jar, it’s just enough to get me home
And fill my coffee cup, oh lord this is the life I love

Chorus

Dalhart to Del Rio
And all points in between
It’s as big a star
As I ever wanna be
