 [Intro] 
 
 {D} {A} {E} {A} {A} 
 
 [GS Verse] 
 {A} Nobody saw them running 
 From 16th Ave-{D}-nue 
 They never found the {A} fingerprints 
 Or the weapon that was {E} used 
 But some-{A}-one killed country music 
 Cut out its heart and {D} soul 
 They got away with {A} murder 
 {E} Down on music {A} row 
 
 [AJ Verse] 
 {A} The almight dollar 
 And the lust for worldwide {D} fame 
 Slowly killed tra-{A}-dition 
 And for that, someone should {E} hang ("Ahh, you tell 'em Alan") 
 {A} They all say "Not Guilty!" 
 But the evidence will {D} show 
 That murder was com-{A}-mitted 
 {E} Down on music {A} row 
 
 [Chorus (Walking bassline first 8 bars, 2/4 beat last 9 bars] 
 For the {D} steel guitars no longer cry 
 And the {A} fiddles barely play 
 But {B} drums and rock 'n' roll guitars 
 Are {E} mixed up in your face 
 {A} Ol' Hank wouldn't have a chance 
 On today's {D} radio 
 Since they committed {A} murder 
 {E} Down on music {A} row 
 
 [Turnaround] 
 
 {D} {A} {E} {A} {A} 
 
 [Split Verse] 
 GS: They {A} thought no one would miss it 
 Once it was dead and {D} gone 
 They said no one would {A} buy them ol' 
 Drinkin' and cheatin' {E} songs ("Oh, but I still buy 'em") 
 AJ: Well there {A} ain't no justice in it 
 And the hard facts are {D} cold 
 Murder's been com-{A}-mitted 
 {E} Down on music {A} row 
 
 [Chorus (Walking bassline first 8 bars, 2/4 beat last 9 bars] 
 For the {D} steel guitars no longer cry 
 And you {A} can't hear fiddles play 
 With {B} drums and rock 'n' roll guitars 
 Mixed {E} right up in your face 
 Why the {A} Hag wouldn't have a chance 
 On today's {D} radio 
 Since they committed {A} murder 
 {E} Down on music {A} row 
 
 [Tag (Walking bassline] 
 Why they {A} even tell the Possum 
 To pack up and go back {D} home 
 There's been an awful {A} murder 
 {E} Down on music {A} row 
 
 {eot}
