              F
Haggard on a houseboat, tryin' not to sink
                A#7
Wonderin' if he oughta float back or
                     F
just stay here and drink
            C7                                A#7
He found a guitar 'fore he found that Shasta shore
                F
And a song was born

Willie on an airplane, brown bag and a pen
Flyin' high thinking 'bout being on the road again
Tried her out on a crowd down at John T. Floore's
A song was born

Chorus:
       A#
Outta real life, outta real love
     C
The best ones you can't make up
    Dm                   C                  A#  A#7
It just means more when you've been there before.
       A#
Outta hard times, outta heartbreaks
         C
Hitch a good rhyme to a mistake
          Dm                  C               A# A#7
Then you pour those feelings out over three chords.
             F
A song was born

I've wrote 'em in the Carolina mountains,
on a Cabo beach
In a thousand rooms in Nashville, Tennessee
On a Bitterroot River, Montana back porch
A song was born

Chorus

Outta real life, outta real love
The best ones you can't make up
It just means more when you've been there before
Outta hard times, outta heartbreaks
Hitch a good rhyme to a mistake
Then you pour those feelings out over three chords
Then you pour those feelings out over three chords
A song was born

A song was born
