A Legend In My Time

Johnny Cash


Tom: G

G                     C    D               G 
If heartaches brought fame in love's crazy game 
         C      D     G 
I'd be a legend in my time. 
G                     C    D               G 
If they gave gold statuettes for tears and regrets, 
         C      D     G 
I'd be a legend in my time. 

         A                              D 
But they don't give awards, and there's no praise or fame 
         A                          D 
For a heart that's been broken over love that's in vain. 

            G               C               
If loneliness meant world acclaim, 
     D                      G 
Then everyone would know my name 
         C      D     G   
I'd be a legend in my time.
