  She  could dance and she could sing
  She left Texas with her dreams
  She swore that she could make it on her own
  She  was young and she was fine
  She had looks and she had time
  And the feelings of a woman fully grown
  She  hit Nashville like a storm
  As soft as she was warm
  Knowin' she'd be discovered any day
  But  the things she did the best
  Was her overnight  success
  And the singing  just got lost along the way
  Baby  sings the blues down on Broadway
  Singing  from bottom of her heart
  Baby  sings the blues down on Broadway
  Then cries  herself to sleep there in the dark
  From  a blessing to a curse
  Things just went from bad to worse
  Life at night worked out the way she planned
  And  although her dreams were gone
  She just couldn't go back home
  To a town she knew that would not understand

Sh[A]e could dance and she could sing

        She left Texas with her dreams
        She swore that she could make it on her o[E]wn

        Sh[E]e was young and she was fine

        She had looks and she had time
        And the feelings of a woman fully gr[A]own

        Sh[A]e hit Nashville like a storm

        As soft as she was warm
        Knowin' she'd be discovered any d[D]ay

        B[D]ut the things she did the best
        Was her o[A]vernight success
        And the si[E]nging just got lost along the [A]way

        Bab[D]y sings the blues down on Br[A]oadway
        Sin[E]ging from bottom of her h[A]eart
        Bab[D]y sings the blues down on Br[A]oadway
        Then cr[E]ies herself to sleep there in the d[A]ark

        Fr[A]om a blessing to a curse

        Things just went from bad to worse
        Life at night worked out the way she pla[E]nned

        An[E]d although her dreams were gone

        She just couldn't go back home
        To a town she knew that would not unders[A]tand
