[VERSE 1]
I[C]n a heavy rain standing
Off an o[F]ld county roa[C]d
'Side a high rolling river so sw[G]ift
Ther[C]e was a hitchhiking stranger
Quit[F]e pale from the c[C]old
On[Am] a cane, tryin' t[G]o thumb down a lif[F]t
Wel[C]l, I pulled up beside him
And let[F] my window on dow[C]n
To t[Am]he rain and the b[F]one-chilling w[G]ind
Said[C] "You look awful [G]worn
In t[F]his late-winte[C]r storm
Which[Am] way are you he[G]aded, my fri[F]end?"

[CHORUS]
"R[Am]ight up [G]to the spotlig[C]ht
Drin[F]kin' all that [Am]Coke and gi[G]n
And I'[C]ll be suit-wearin' man
With [F]gold in my h[C]and
If t[Am]oday do[G]esn't do me i[F]n" [C]

[VERSE 2]
Behi[C]nd a gas station counter
Movin[F]g crates full of thi[C]ngs
That [Am]looked far to[C]o heavy for [G]her
There[C] stood a girl with a frown
Said, "Let me j[F]ust set these [C]down
And I[Am]'ll be rig[G]ht with you, s[F]ir" [C]
I said, [C]"No hurry here
Take all the[F] time that you [C]want"
She said, "A l[Am]ittle time and[C] you just wait and [G]see
Oh, I'll be[C] without a care[G]
When I f[F]inally get ther[C]e"
I said, "M[Am]iss, tell[G] me where might that [F]be" [C]

[CHORUS]
"Rig[Am]ht up to[G] the spotlight[C]
Drink[F]in' all that C[Am]oke and gin[G]
And I'[C]ll be a dress-wearin' girl
With t[F]he heels and the p[C]earls
If tod[Am]ay doesn't[G] do me i[F]n
If tod[Am]ay doesn't[G] do me i[F]n" [C]

[VERSE 3]
Well, I[C] got a head-full this morning
Cuttin'[F] out through the f[C]og
You kno[Am]w, I can't help [C]but wonder what's[G] left
From ever[C]y road that dead-ends
To tho[F]se old bitter [C]men
Pass[Am]ing time on[G] the old court[F]house steps [C]
And th[C]ere's a feeling you get
Not f[F]ar from despa[C]ir
Tha[C]t sometimes[F] sets in on your m[G]ind [C]
But i[C]f it's all that you'[G]ve got
You s[F]till set the clo[C]ck
And g[Am]et up with[G] a reason to cl[F]imb [C]

[CHORUS]
Righ[Am]t up to [G]the spotlight [C]
Drin[F]king all that [Am]coke and gi[G]n
And [C]I'll leave these shadows behind
For a[F] new peace of mi[C]nd
If tod[Am]ay does[G]n't do me[F] in [C]
If tod[Am]ay does[G]n't do me[F] in [C]
