Country Hall Of Fame

	  		C 
I was roaming around in Nashville in the state of Tennessee  

      G7                              F              C 
For I love that country music it's as soulful as can be 
  
  
I have gathered their records for I cherish every name 
  
     G7                                             C 
So I found myself a-standing in the Country Hall Of Fame 
  
  
                                                            
My heart beats somewhat faster as I walk in thru the door 
  
      G7                              F           C 
For I heard the sound of voices I had often heard before 
  
  
A happy kind of sadness brought a teardrop to my eye  

         G7                                                     C 
Now I'll tell you what I saw there and I'm sure that you'll see why 
  
  
                                                              
Jimmie Rodger's railroad letters and his faithful old guitar 
  
        G7                                   F         C 
I could hear that old Blue Yodel coming from somewhere afar 
  
  
Roy Acuff in Bronze likeness with the great Fred Rose his friend  

      G7                                                C 
And I heard that Wabash Cannonball somewhere around the bend 
  
  
                                                    
The guitar of Eddy Arnold memories of Cattle Call 
  
     G7                                         F         C 
Chet Atkins will be with him When The Works All Done This Fall  

  
From the Autoharp of Maybelle Wildwood Flower seemed to ring 
  
      G7                                                 C 
Riley Puckett and Gid Tanner how they all could pick and sing  

  
                                                                 
I could hear George Hay announcing as I stood there in the room  

        G7                                  F         C 
I could hear Tex Ritter singing his classic song High Noon 
  
  
Minnie Pearl so glad to be there and Hank Snow keeps Moving On 
  
        G7                                                      C 
May the Lord bless those still living and the ones who join His throne
