Best That I Can

	  		Intro: E 
 
E 
I never said I was an outlaw 
 
Though people say I am 
A                                       E 
That some mighty big shoes to fill and I don't think I ever will 
B                         E 
But I'll do the best I can 
 
E 
Just because I get a little crazy 
 
And I have been busted by the man 
A 
And this here music that I'm playin'  
E 
Well ain't none of that makes me Waylon 
B                        E 
But I'll do the best I can 
 

A 
I've got that hard drivin' music 
                       E 
Runnin' through my veins 
A 
I love to turn it up 
                     B      A     
And bend them guitar strings
 
 
 
E 
Does the man make the music 
 
Does the music make the man 
A 
I'll never be no Shaver 
                               E 
Or write the hits like Willie can 
         B 
I never said I was an outlaw 
        D          A        E 
But I'm doin' the best I can 
 
 
E 
Well I've heard all about Bocephus 
 
Goin' back to Sweet Home Alabam 
        A                                      E 
Just to play his kind of music and that I understand 
        B                     
When it comes down to it Hank 
A                    E   
I'll do the best I can 
 
Chorus: 
A 
I've got that hard drivin' music 
                       E 
Runnin' through my veins 
A 
I love to turn it up 
                     B       A 
And bend them guitar strings 
 
E 
Does the man make the music 
 
Does the music make the man 
A 
I'll never sing like Johnny Cash 
                               E  
Or write the hits like Haggard can 
         B 
I never said I was an outlaw 
         D         A            E 
But I'm doin' the best that I can.
