I    was    nothing    but    a    city    boy       My     trumpet     was     my     only     toy

I’ve    been    blowing    my    horn       Since     i     knew     i     was    born

But     there     ain’t     nobody     wants     to     know
                            G                                                               D
I’ve    been    Sleeping    On    The    Sidewalk          Rolling     down     the     road
         A                                                                       D         C A G F D F#7 G7 G#7 A7
I    may    get    hungry        But    i    sure     don’t     want     to     go     home

                                   D
So    round   the   corner   comes   a   limousine   And    the   biggest   grin   i  ever    seen

Here     sonny     won’t     you     sign               Right     along     the     dotted     line 

What    you    saying            Are    you    playing        Sure    you    don’t    mean    me ?
                               G                                                               D
I’ve     been     Sleeping     On     The     Sidewalk        Rolling     down     the     road
          A                                                                                           D           C A G F D

They   took  me  to  a  room  without  a  table   They  said:  Blow   your   trumpet   into   here
             G
I      played      around          As    well           As   I          Was   able
                A
And      soon      we      had        the      record      of      the      year

                        D
I   was   a   legend   all   through   the    land I    was    blowing   to   a   million    fans

Nothing     was     a     missing    All     the     people     want     to     listen
       
You’d      have      thought      i      was      a      happy      man
                                         G                                                      D
And      i      was      sleeping     like    a    princess  Never      touch      the      road
         A                                                                         D           C A G F D F#7 G7 G#7
I    don’t    get    hungry    And    i     sure      don’t      want      to      go     home

Now      they      tell      me      that      i      ain’t      so     fashionable
                          D
And      i      owe      the      man      a      million       bucks      a      year
                       G
