[A] [E] [A]
Back [D] before I was a movie star, [A] straight off of the farm, I had a [E] picture of another man's
wife [A] tattooed on my arm.
A pack [D] of Camel cigarettes in the sleeve [A] of my t-shirt, heading [E] out to Hollywood just
to have [A] my feelings heard.
That town [D] make you crazy, just give it [A] a little time.
You'll be walking [E] around in circles, down at [A] Hollywood and back.
You'll be waiting [D] on a phone call, at the wrong end [A] of a bend.
Yeah, that town [E] make you crazy, crazy [A] as a limb.
So heading [D] down to Nashville, you become a [A] country star.
Every night you [E] find me hanging, every honky [A] tonking bar.
Pretty soon [D] I met a woman, pretty soon she done [A] me wrong.
Pretty soon my [E] life got sadder than any [A] country song.
That town [D] make you crazy, just give it a [A] little time.
You'll be walking [E] around in circles, looking for that [A] country rhyme.
You'll be waiting [D] on that phone call, at the wrong [A] end of a bend.
Yeah, that town [E] make you crazy, crazy [A] as a limb.
[D] [A]
[E] [A]
[D] [A]
[E] [A]
So [D] I gathered all my savvy, bought myself a [A] business suit.
I headed up to New [E] York City, where [A] a man could make some loot.
I got hired [D] Monday morning, downsized that [A] afternoon.
Overcome with [E] grief that evening, [A] now I'm crazy as a limb.
So I'm up there [D] in the north woods, just staring [A] at a lake.
Wondering just [E] exactly how much, [A] they think a man can take.
I ain't fixed [D] to pass the time away, beneath the blue [A] Canadian moon.
Lord, this [E] world will make you crazy, crazy [A] as a limb.
Yeah, the [E] world has made me crazy, [A] crazy as a limb.
[D] Woo!
[A]
[E] [A]
[D] [A]
[E] [A]
Crazy as a limb.
