- The numbers are the notes of the diatonic scale (do-re-me-fa-so-la-ti-do)




----------------------

[A]Oh [D]Lord it's hard to be humble when you're perfect in every [A7]way

I can't wait to look in the mirror 'cause I get better lookin' each [D]day

To know me is to love me I [D7]must be a hell of a [G]man

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble but I'm [A7]doing the best that I [D]can

I [D]used to [G]have a [D]girlfriend but I guess she just couldn't com[A7]pete

With all of these love-starved women who keep clamoring at my [D]feet

Well, I prob'ly could find me another but I [D7]guess they're all in awe of [G]me

Who cares I never get [D]lonesome 'cause I [A7]treasure my own compan[D]y

I guess you could say I'm a loner a cowboy outlaw tough and proud

Oh I could have lots of friends if I wanna but them I wouldn't stand

out in a crowd

Some folks say that I'm egotistical hell, I don't even know what that means

I guess it has something to do with the way that I fill out my skin-tight

bluejeans
