Country Music Hall Of Fame

Hank Locklin

 G
  I was roamin' 'round in Nashville, in the state of Tennessee
 D7CG
For I  love that country music, it's as soulful  as can  be
I have gathered their records, for I cherish every name
 D7G
So I  found myself a-standing in the Country Hall Of  Fame

 G
  My heart beats somewhat faster as I walk in thru the door
 D7CG
For I  heard the sound of voices I had often  heard be--fore
A happy kind of sadness brought a teardrop to my eye
 D7G
Now I'll  tell you what I saw there and I'm sure that you'll see  
why

CHANGE TO KEY OF E:
 E
  Jimmie Rodger's railroad letters and his faithful old guitar
 B7A
I could  hear that old 'Blue Yodel' comin' from some--where
 E
a--far
Roy Acuff - in Bronze likeness, with the great Fred Rose - his friend
 B7E
And I  heard that Wabash Cannonball somewhere around the  bend

 E
  The guitar of Eddy Arnold - memories of Cattle Call
 B7AE
Chet  Atkins will be with him, 'When The Works All  Done This  
Fall'
From the Autoharp of Maybelle - 'Wildwood Flower' seemed to ring
 B7E
Riley  Puckett and Gid Tanner, how they all could pick and  sing

CHANGE TO KEY OF A:
 A
  I could hear George Hay announcin', as I stood there in the room
 E7DA
I could  hear Tex Ritter singin' his classic  song - 'High  
Noon'
Minnie Pearl so glad to be there and Hank Snow keeps 'Movin' On'
 E7A
May the  Lord bless those still livin' and the ones who join His  
throne

 A
  Cowboy Copas, Hawkshaw Hawkins; Gentleman Jim and Patsy Cline
 E7DA
Rod  Brasfield, Ira Louvin; these stars will  always  shine
Ernest Tubb, the great Red Foley and Hank Williams - bless his name
 E7D
Tho' some are  gone they'll live forever in the Country Hall Of  
 A
Fame
