Country Hall Of Fame 
by Hank Locklin 
 
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
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 
        B7                                   A         E
I could hear that old Blue Yodel coming from somewhere afar 
 
Roy Acuff in Bronze likeness with the great Fred Rose his friend 
      B7                                                E
And I heard that Wabash Cannonball somewhere around the bend 
 
                                                   
The guitar of Eddy Arnold memories of Cattle Call 
     B7                                         A         E
Chet Atkins will be with him When The Works All Done This Fall 
 
From the Autoharp of Maybelle Wildwood Flower seemed to ring 
      B7                                                 EA
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 
        E7                                  D         A
I could hear Tex Ritter singing his classic song High Noon 
 
Minnie Pearl so glad to be there and Hank Snow keeps Moving On 
        E7                                                      A
May the Lord bless those still living and the ones who join His throne 
 
                                                               
Cowboy Copas Hawkshaw Hawkins Gentleman Jim and Patsy Cline 
    E7                                    D      A
Rod Brasfield Ira Louvin these stars will always shine 
 
Ernest Tubb the great Red Foley and Hank Williams bless his name 
                E7                                               D
Though some are gone they'll live forever in the Country Hall Of Fame

gisber, you left the 3 chord changes out of your original chart so i replaced your chords with the chords that Hank plays in the original recording
