Country Hall Of Fame 
 
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                                                     GE
