Its Hard To Be Humble

[Spoken Intro]
C
 Back a few months ago,
                         C/E
I was headlinin' a great big nightclub
C                C/E
 And they put me up a couple days early,
  C
I came in a couple days early
And they put me up in what they call the "Star Suite"
Now here I am,
          C/E                           C
headlinin'   in one of the biggest nightclubs
In the country and I wake up at eight o'clock in the
morning
In this "Star Suite" all by myself
Yeah, that's what I said, "Awwwww."
                      C/E
But I did what I've always done, man,
           C
to cheer myself up
I picked up my guitar,
I sat down and I wrote me a little song
Now this is how it feels to be alone at the top of the hill
Tryin' to figure out why

[Chorus]
   C
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
                             G
When you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror
                                 C
'Cause I get better lookin' each day
To know me is to love me
  C7                  F
I must be a hell of a man
                         C
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
        G                     C   F C
But I'm doin' the best that I can!

[Verse 1]
  C
I used to have a girlfriend
                                 G
But I guess she just couldn't compete
With all of these love-starved women
                         C
Who keep clamoring at my feet
Well I probably could find me another
      C7                          F
But I guess they're all in awe of me
                       C
Who cares? I never get lonesome
         G                    C
'Cause I treasure my own company
G
Ohh

[Chorus]
C
Lord, it's hard to be humble
                             G
When you're perfect in every way
Can't wait to look in the mirror
I can't wait to look in the mirror
Help me out now, come on
                          C
I get better lookin' each day
To know me is to what?
To know me is to love me
Must be a hell of a man
  C7                  F
I must be a hell of a man
Oh Lord, it's hard
                         C
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
When you doin' what?
      G                      C  F C
We're doin' the best that we can

[Verse 2]
  C
I guess you could say I'm a loner
                           G
A cowboy outlaw, tough and proud
Well,
I could have lot of friends if I wanted
                                       C
But then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd
Some folks say that I'm "egotistical"
        C7                        F
Hell, I don't even know what that means!
                              C
I guess it has something to do with the way
       G                           C    F C  G
That I fill out my skin-tight blue jeans  Ohh
Come on,
where's all the kickers in here?!

[Chorus]
   C
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way
                             G
When you're perfect in every way
Can't wait to look in the mirror
I can't wait to look in the mirror
Cause I get better lookin'
                          C
I get better lookin' each day
To know me is to what?
To know me is to love me
Must be a hell of a man
  C7                  F
I must be a hell of a man
Oh Lord, it's hard
                         C
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
What are we doin'?
      G                      C
We're doin' the best that we can
One more time, what are we doin'?

[Outro]
      G                      C
We're doing the best that we can!
Give yourselves a hand
Yee-haw
