| I was roamin' 'round in Nashville, in the state of Tennessee |
| D7 | C | G | |
| For I | love that country music, it's as soulful | as can | be |
| I have gathered their records, for I cherish every name |
| D7 | G | |
| 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 |
| D7 | C | G | |
| For I | heard the sound of voices I had often | heard be- | -fore |
| A happy kind of sadness brought a teardrop to my eye |
| D7 | G | |
| Now I'll | tell you what I saw there and I'm sure that you'll see |
| why |
