 CHORUS:
    1          *          *       *               *          *     57   *
 Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble, ..  when you're perfect in every way
 
   *             *           *       *             *          *            *    *
 I can't wait to look in the mirror, .... 'cause I get better lookin' each day
 
    1       *     *        *      17        *         4    *
 To know me is to love me ___,  I must be a hell of a man
 
     *          *          1       *          57        *           1    *
 Oh, Lord, it's hard to be humble, .. but I'm doing the best that I can
 
 
 
   1       4      1           *        *              *            57    *
 I used to have a girlfriend, .. but I guess she just couldn't com-pete
 
      *            *            *      *           *         *     1     *
 With all of these love-starved women, .. who keep clamoring at my feet
 
        *             *         *      *        17                   *      4    *
 Well I prob'ly could find me a-nother .. but I guess they're all in awe of me
 
     *        *         1         *           57          *          1   57
 Who cares, I never get lonesome, .. 'cause I treasure my own compan-y,  Oh
 
 
   1               4         1      *    *          *              57     *
 I guess you could say I'm a loner, .. a cowboy out-law, tough and proud
 
       *                  *            *
 Oh, I could have lots of friends if I want-a /
        *             *              *            1      *
      / .. but then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd
 
      *              *       *
 Some folks say that I'm ego-tistical /
        *          17         *              4      *
      / .. Hell, I don't even know what that means
 
   *            *            1           
 I guess it has somethin' to do with the way /
        *         57          *               1      57
      / .. that I fill out my skin-tight blue jeans, Oh

 I guess you could say I'm a loner a cowboy outlaw tough and proud
 Oh I could have lots of friends if I wanna but them I wouldn't stand

 I guess it has something to do with the way that I fill out my skin-tight
          bluejeans
