Lorrie Morgan - Tribute To The Opry
G
As the (G) lights were turned (G7) off
And the (C) curtain was closed
And (G) all of the (A) songs had been (D) sung (D7)
At the (G) Grand Ol' (G7) Opry
I (C) sit here and wonder
How this (G) great country (D) show had (G) begun
Did the (G) great one above (G7) us
(C) Gather some tears
And some (G) heartaches he (A) took from lifes (D) pain (D7)
And (G) mix it to-(G7)-gether
With (C) laughter and joy
And (G) sprinkle it (D) over the (G) stage
Could it (G) be he was (G7) thinking
One (C) saturday night
Of (G) something that (A) we all could (D) share (D7)
So he (G) started the (G7) Opry
For (C) you and for me
And he (G) put this great (D) show on the (G) air
Did he (A) know there'd be (A7) happyness
(D) Here on the stage
Did he (A) know men would (B) cry in the (E) wings (E7)
And each (A) saturday (A7) night
Over (D) 70 years
Folks have (A) lined up for (B) blocks just to see
How the (A) great one has (A7) planned
The (D) best show in the land
On this (A) stage of the (E) Grand Ol' Op-(A)-ry
