A  D                                                         A7
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble when you're perfect in every way
                                                                    D
I can't wait to look in the mirror 'cause I get better lookin' each day
                            D7                  G
To know me is to love me, I must be a hell of a man
                         D              A7                    D
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble but I'm doing the best that I can

[Verse]
  D       G      D                                           A7
I used to have a girlfriend but I guess she just couldn't compete
                                                              D
With all of these love-starved women who keep clamoring at my feet
                                            D7                          G
Well, I prob'ly could find me another but I guess they're all in awe of me
                      D                 A7                    D
Who cares I never get lonesome 'cause I treasure my own company

[Verse]
  D         G                 D                                 A7
I guess you could say I'm a loner, a cowboy outlaw, tough and proud
                                                                                D
Oh, I could have lots of friends if I wanna but then I wouldn't stand out in a crowd
                                                                         G
Some folks say that I'm egotistical, hell, I don't even know what that means
                             D                                               D
I guess it has something to do with the way that I fill out my skin-tight blue jeans

A  D                                                         A7
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble when you're perfect in every way
                                                                    D
I can't wait to look in the mirror 'cause I get better lookin' each day
                            D7                  G
To know me is to love me, I must be a hell of a man
                         D              A7                    D
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble but I'm doing the best that I can
