[D] [G] [C] [D] [G]
[C] [D] [G] As the maid poured wine and [C] we prepared to dine, [Bm] I knew I was feeling [G] out of place.
At a table as large [C] as a river bar, [D] and I love you written all [G] on your face.
I appreciate your hospitality, but I wish that we [D] would go.
[G] Let me drive us to McDonald's [C] and I'll talk to you concerning [D] something you should [G] really know.
I'm just a common man, [C] drive a common van, [G] my dog ain't got a [D] pedigree.
If I [G] have my say, [C] gonna stay that way, [G] cause high-pride people [Em] lose their sanity.
[G] And a common [D] man is what I'll be.
[G]
[C] [D] [G]
[C] [D] I'll [G] take a Chevrolet [C] just any day, so [D] give your daddy back his [G] Mercedes Benz.
And there's some common people [C] that I hang out with, [D] they're my good time buddies, [G] they're my friends.
[C] And I'd rather chug a lugger mugger Budweiser beer than [G] sip a crystal glass [D] of wine.
So [G] won't you make your mind up to [C] believe in me, and [D] leave this high-living world [G]
behind.
I'm just a common man, [C] drive a common van, [G] my dog ain't got a [D]
pedigree.
[G] If I have my say, [C] gonna stay that way, [G] cause high-pride people [Em] lose their sanity.
[G] And a common [D] man is [G] what I'll be.
[Am] Yes, I'm happy just being [Em] free.
[Am] And I'm happy just [Em] being me.
[Am] And I hope that you [D] will see.
I'm [G] just a common man, drive a [C] common van, [G] my dog ain't got a [D] pedigree.
[G] If I have my say, [C] gonna stay that way, [G] cause high-pride people [Em] lose their sanity.
[G] And a common [D] man is [G] what I'll be.
[C] [D] I'm [G] just a common man, [C] drive a common van, [G] my dog ain't got a [D]
pedigree.
[G] If I have my say, [C] gonna stay that way, [G] cause high-pride people [Em] lose their sanity.
