Nashville Song Lyrics and Chords by David Houston

Nashville

Recorded by David Houston

Written by Don Wayne

C

In the year of forty-

G7

three momma

C

finished feedin'

F

me

And quickly

C

rushed off to her

G7

job at Worthen's

C

Bag

Mill

G7

But at

C

Fourth and Monroe

G7

street

A failin'

C

heart stopped her willin'

F

feet

And momma gave

C

up the breath of

G7

life in the town of

C

Nashville

Daddy was

G7

in the county jail so my

F

older sister

C

Nell

Took a job at a tavern that

G7

some folks call the

C

trash

mill

And when the

G7

welfare agency offered

F

help Nell she smiled at

C

me

No thanks but we'll get

G7

by in this town of

C

Nashville

As a kid I went to

G7

school perched up

C

high on a tavern

F

stool

A listenin' to the

C

songs on the

G7

jukebox at the

C

trash

mill

G7

And the

C

hurtin' in them sad ol'

G7

songs

Settled

C

down in a poor boy's

F

bones

And I

C

vowed I'd someday

G7

sing and play in

C

Nashville

So my

G7

older sister Nell like a

F

true blue southern

C

bell

Bought me a second handed guitar

G7

from the Nashville

C

Goodwill

Heaven would

G7

smile and bells would ring

When I

F

touched those shiny

C

strings

And I was the richest

G7

poor boy in the town of

C

Nashville

There's a chill down in my

G7

bones as it's

C

my time to go

F

on

And I'm

C

sure the good Lord

G7

knows just how

C

I

feel

G7

Though they're

C

callin' me a

G7

star

I can't

C

forget about my first

F

guitar

And the woman who

C

helped me a make it

G7

big

In the town of

C

Nashville

Repeat #4

And I'm the richest

G7

poor boy in the town of

F

Nashville

C
