VERSE:
D A G D
Country music was the backbone of his life
A
Any song you choose it,
G D
He’d play anything you liked.
A
Most every evening,
G A
You could find me by his side.
Bm Em A
Where I’d lend the third part harmony to mom and dad’s duets.
Bm Em A
Unill lullabies hung from my eyes and I wandered off to bed.
CHORUS:
D C G A
And I can see my mother in this country home
D C G
I got a sister and two brothers all my own
D C G A
And believe me family unity was ever so strong
D C G
When I heard my father’s fiddle play,
A D
Some good old country songs.
C G
(When my father’s fiddle played)
A D
Some good old country songs.
C G
(When my father’s fiddle played)
VERSE:
D A G D
Country neighbors, they say that he’s the best around
A
To play their favorites
G D A
At every Friday night hoe-down, and late in the evening
G A
With the neighbors homeward bound
Bm Em A
His closings were as customary as turning out the lights
Bm Em A
A quarter for my pocket, a love song for his wife.
CHORUS:
D C G A
And I can see my mother in this country home
D C G
I got a sister and two brothers all my own
D C G A
And believe me family unity was ever so strong

A D
Some good old country songs.

Some of those good old country songs.

(When my father’s fiddle played)
INSTRUMENTAL: D C G D C G
BREAK:
A Bm F#m
Ah, but where oh where has the time gone?
G A Bm
It’s been years since my ears have been played upon.
A G
I heard the fiddler lost his tune in some bar room
A Bm
And his family’s to another town, it must be lonesome
Em A
Wishing all the lost and somehow find you now
CHORUS:
D C G A
And I can see my mother, she lives all alone
D C G
I got a sister and two brothers but they’re all grown
D C G A
And believe me family unity was ever so strong

When I heard my father’s fiddle play some good old country songs.

(Heard my father’s fiddle play) some good old country songs.
C G A D
(Heard my father’s fiddle play) some of those good old country songs.

When I heard him, playing, playing, playing on,
A D
Some good old country songs
C G A D
When I heard his fiddle play, hey-heeey,
C G A D
That fiddle when he’d play, some good old country songs.

(When my father’s fiddle played)

Awe, some country songs,

How I just love those good old country songs.
