G                                                             

I was roaming around 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 

 

                                                           

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 before 

 

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 

 

                                                             

Jimmie Rodger's railroad letters and his faithful old guitar 

        D7                                   C         G      

I could hear that old Blue Yodel coming from somewhere afar 

 

Roy Acuff in Bronze likeness with the great Fred Rose his friend 

      D7                                                G      

And I heard that Wabash Cannonball somewhere around the bend 

 

                                                   

The guitar of Eddy Arnold memories of Cattle Call 

     D7                                         C         G      

Chet Atkins will be with him When The Works All Done This Fall 

 

From the Autoharp of Maybelle Wildwood Flower seemed to ring 

      D7                                                 G      

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 

        D7                                  C         G      

I could hear Tex Ritter singing his classic song High Noon 

 

Minnie Pearl so glad to be there and Hank Snow keeps Moving On 

        D7                                                      G        

May the Lord bless those still living and the ones who join His throne 

 

                                                               

Cowboy Copas Hawkshaw Hawkins Gentleman Jim and Patsy Cline 

    D7                                    C      G       

Rod Brasfield Ira Louvin these stars will always shine 

 

Ernest Tubb the great Red Foley and Hank Williams bless his name 

                D7                                               C 

Though some are gone they'll live forever in the Country Hall Of Fame
