The Tourist Recorded by Wynn Stewart Written by Wynn Stewart and Curtis Leach
F C I was just a tourist out on the great white way F Where lights make night as bright as day C G7 And day as dark as night C F I visited the city seen all the finer sights C Then I thought I'd do some slummin' G7 C For a little while one night
F Well I stepped into the shadows of a second rate cafe C D7 G7 The burlesques were before me in their old familiar way C F C F As I drew near my table the front girl whirled around C G7 C And I recognized my sweetheart from my own hometown
F C Yes she was just a hometown high school beauty queen F C G7 But everybody told her how she could be everything C F When the contest finally ended and the judges called her name C G7 C She won a trip to Broadway where she would find the fame
F I slowly turned around and stepped back into crowd C D7 G7 For I knew she mustn't see me she always was too proud C F And in that one lonely moment the truth my mind unveiled C G7 C The town she loved may failed her the town she thought she failed
F So that night I wrote a letter on a homeward bound express C D7 G7 And it read congratulations to you on your success C F But if you should ever decide to come back home again C D7 G7 Well you know I'll always be here waitin' just like I've always been
F C I was just a tourist out on the great white way F C G7 Where lights made night as bright as day and day as bright as night C F When old friends ask about her I just smile at them and say C G7 C She stars a show on Broadway out on the great white way
