Im Gonna Be Somebody

[Intro]

G C D D G C D C

[Verse 1]

G D C D

Bobby played his guitar on the harder side of town

G D C D

Where it's hard for a poor boy to find the money

G D C D

He had dedication, he had the heart and soul

C D G D

Somehow knew he was born to play

G D

People would say get a real job

C D

Support your family

G D C D

Cause there's no future in the road you're taking

G D C D

He never said a word, the dreamer just kept on

C D G D

Late at night you could hear him say (he'd say)

[Chorus]

G C D

I'm gonna be somebody

G C D

One of these days I'm gonna break these chains

G C D B7

I'm gonna be somebody, someday

C D G C D C

You can bet your hard earned dollar I will

[Verse 2]

G D

The road was a struggle

C D

Took him ten years to the top

G D C D

But now he's number one on the stage and the radio

G D C D

Still he can't believe how people come from miles around

C D G D

When it seemed like it was only yesterday, he would say

[Chorus]

G C D

I'm gonna be somebody

G C D

One of these days I'm gonna break these chains

G C D B7

I'm gonna be somebody someday

C D G

You can bet your hard earned dollar I will

[Verse 3]

G D

Bobby played his hometown

C D

One fullmoon August night

G D C D

When he heard a voice in the front row saying

G D

It was a, sandy haired riverboy

C D

With those same old hungry eyes

C D G

Looked up at Bobby and said

[Chorus]

G C D

I'm gonna be somebody someday

G C D

One of these days I'm gonna break these chains

G C D B7

I'm gonna be somebody someday

C D G C D

You can bet your hard earned dollar I will

G C D

I'm gonna be somebody someday

G C D

One of these days I'm gonna break these chains

G C D B7

I'm gonna be somebody someday

C D G

You can bet your hard earned dollar I will

[Outro]

Am7 D C G/B Am G

You can bet your hard earned dollar I will
