Shady Rest
Recorded by Mel Street
Written by Bob McDill
C 
Oh she was twenty-one she  
F 
liked to have her  
G7 
fun and she was  
C 
restless 
 
 
F 
 
G7 
 
And I  
C 
met her through a friend  
F 
just one look then  
G7 
I knew I was  
C 
helpless 
 
 
F 
 
G7 
 
And  
F 
there beside the highway  
C 
underneath the trees
 
There were  
F 
fifteen cozy rooms  
G7 
and a coke machine
 
And the  
C 
summer nights were warm
 
We  
F 
found a home  
G7 
away from home at  
C 
Shady 
 
Rest
 
They said she married well I  
F 
read all they had to  
G7 
tell in the  
C 
papers 
 
 
F 
 
G7 
 
And I  
C 
thought she had it all till  
F 
she gave me a  
G7 
call three weeks  
C 
later
F 
 
G7 
 
And  
F 
there beside the highway  
C 
underneath the trees
 
There were  
F 
fifteen cozy rooms  
G7 
and fourteen vacancies
 
And the  
C 
autumn nights were cool
 
We  
F 
found a home  
G7 
away from home at  
C 
Shady 
 
Rest
 
Our  
G7 
love was somehow special our  
C 
love was somehow  
F 
blessed
 
Through the  
C 
years it never faltered  
G7 
down at Shady Rest
C 
Now she's thirty-one with  
F 
three kids at  
G7 
home and a husband  
C 
waiting
F 
 
G7 
 
And I  
C 
got kids of my own but I  
F 
spend my time at  
G7 
home 
 
antici
C 
pating 
 
 
F 
 
G7 
 
And  
F 
there beside the highway  
C 
underneath the trees
 
We spend two  
F 
nights a week in  
G7 
good old number three
 
And the  
C 
winter nights are cold
 
We  
F 
found a home  
G7 
away from home at  
C 
Shady 
 
Rest
F 
(Shady Rest  
C 
Shady Rest) stay a little longer
F 
(Shady Rest  
C 
Shady Rest) please don't go
F 
Shady Rest  
C 
Shady Rest) honey don't worry
F 
(Shady Rest  
C 
Shady Rest) nobody's gonna know
F 
(Shady Rest  
C 
Shady 
 
Rest)
