Nashville
Recorded by David Houston
Written by Don Wayne

C G7 C F
In the year of forty-three momma finished feedin' me
C G7 C G7
And quickly rushed off to her job at Worthen's Bag Mill
C G7
But at Fourth and Monroe street
C F
A failin' heart stopped her willin' feet
C G7 C
And momma gave up the breath of life in the town of Nashville

G7 F C
Daddy was in the county jail so my older sister Nell
G7 C
Took a job at a tavern that some folks call the trash mill
G7 F C
And when the welfare agency offered help Nell she smiled at me
G7 C
No thanks but we'll get by in this town of Nashville

G7 C F
As a kid I went to school perched up high on a tavern stool
C G7 C G7
A listenin' to the songs on the jukebox at the trash mill
C G7
And the hurtin' in them sad ol' songs
C F
Settled down in a poor boy's bones
C G7 C
And I vowed I'd someday sing and play in Nashville

G7 F C
So my older sister Nell like a true blue southern bell
G7 C
Bought me a second handed guitar from the Nashville Goodwill
G7
Heaven would smile and bells would ring
F C
When I touched those shiny strings
G7 C
And I was the richest poor boy in the town of Nashville

G7 C F
There's a chill down in my bones as it's my time to go on
C G7 C G7
And I'm sure the good Lord knows just how I feel
C G7
Though they're callin' me a star
C F
I can't forget about my first guitar
C G7
And the woman who helped me a make it big
C
In the town of Nashville

Repeat #4

G7 F C
And I'm the richest poor boy in the town of Nashville
