Country Hall Of Fame
recorded by Hank Locklin
written by Karl Davis
C
I was roaming around in Nashville in the state of Tennessee
G7 F C
For I love that country music it's as soulful as can be
I have gathered their records for I cherish every name
G7 C
So I found myself a-standing in the Country Hall Of Fame
My heart beats somewhat faster as I walk in thru the door
G7 F C
For I heard the sound of voices I had often heard before
A happy kind of sadness brought a teardrop to my eye
G7 C
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
G7 F C
I could hear that old Blue Yodel coming from somewhere afar
Roy Acuff in Bronze likeness with the great Fred Rose his friend
G7 C
And I heard that Wabash Cannonball somewhere around the bend
The guitar of Eddy Arnold memories of Cattle Call
G7 F C
Chet Atkins will be with him When The Works All Done This Fall
From the Autoharp of Maybelle Wildwood Flower seemed to ring
G7 C
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
G7 F C
I could hear Tex Ritter singing his classic song High Noon
Minnie Pearl so glad to be there and Hank Snow keeps Moving On
G7 C
May the Lord bless those still living and the ones who join His throne
Cowboy Copas Hawkshaw Hawkins Gentleman Jim and Patsy Cline
G7 F C
Rod Brasfield Ira Louvin these stars will always shine
Ernest Tubb the great Red Foley and Hank Williams bless his name
G7 F
Though some are gone they'll live forever in the Country Hall Of Fame

Tex Ritter recorded a song called Hillbilly Heaven many years ago that is somewhat similar to this one, they both pay tribute to artists that have passed on. Use Country Hall Of Fame lyrics and chords to learn this wonderful song.
