Intro:

||:G G - D|C C - D:||

G            C    G              D
He plays guitar      at a hotel bar
G           C           G        D
For out-of-towners and business men
G              C    G                 D
He struts and sings   to his drum machine
G                     C          D       G
But he won't make it big at the Holiday Inn
    D                      C         G
But   she thinks that he looks like Elvis
         C        G                    D            G D
When he runs his fingers through that jet black hair
                      C       G
And sometimes she forgets an order
              C        G                 D
'Cause she's so struck by him she just stops and stares

Chorus:
  G              D     C              G
     They gotta love bigger than the Beatles
D           C           G       D
  Wild and Free like a Rolling Stone
  G                D              C               D
     They gotta a love takes 'em higher than the Eagles
G        D            C           D
  Ain't love such a sweet, sweet song
G             D
  Na, na, na, na, na
C             G
  Na, na, na, na, na
G         C    D           G
  Na, na, na, yeah, yeah, yeah

She pours 'em drinks, loads up the sink
And dreams of bein' a movie star
Her mama said, she'd knock 'em dead
But Hollywood hasn't called so far

But he thinks she's as pretty as a picture
When she wipes down tables in her apron strings
And sometimes he forgets a chorus
'Cause she's shinin' like a beauty on the silver screen

Chorus
        Em                            C
No you won't find their names on the walk of fame
     G                  D
But they ain't missin' much
                  Em               C
'Cause when the lights go down on tinsel town
 G               D
All you need is love

Chorus
