Tonart: D major•
Verse 1
D
G
I was just a tourist
D
out on the great wide way
G
Where lights make night
D
A
as bright as day and day as dark as night
G
seen all the finer sights
D
Then I thought I'd do some slummin'
A
D
For a little while one night
G
Well, I stepped into the shadows
Of a second -rate café
D
The burlesque were performing
E
A
In their old familiar way
D
As I drew near my table
G
D
the front girl whirled around
G
Gm
G
D
and I recognized my sweetheart
A
D
from my own hometown.
G
Yes she was just a hometown
D
high school beauty queen
D
how she could be everything
A
D
when the contest finally ended
G
and the judges called her name
D
she won a trip to Broadway
A
D
where she would find her fame
A
D
G
I slowly turned around
and stepped back in the crowd
D
for I knew she mustn't see me
A
E
she always was too proud
A
D
and in that one long moment
G
The truth my mind unveiled
D
G
D
The town she loved had failed her
A
The town she thought she'd failed
D
So that night I wrote a letter
G
On a homeward bound express
And it read, congratulations
D
E
to you on your success,
A
D
but if you should ever decide
G
to come back home again,
well you know I'll always be here waiting,
D
A
D
just like I've always been.
D
out on the great wide way
G
Where lights make night
D
as bright as day and day
D
When old friends ask about her
G
I just smile at them and say
D
She stars a show on Broadway
A
Out on the Great White Way
