DEAR HEARTS AND GENTLE PEOPLE
Recorded by Jim Reeves
Words and music by Hilliard & Fain
I love those [D] dear hearts and [G] gentle [D] people
Who live in my home [A7] town
I love those [D] dear [D7] hearts and [G] gentle people
Who [D] never ever [A7] let me [D] down.
They read the good book from [G] Friday 'til [D] Monday
That's how the weekend [A7] goes
I've got a [D] dream [D7] house I'll [G] build there one day
With [D] picket fence and [A7] ramblin' [D] rose.
I feel so [G] welcome each [D] time that I return
'Til my happy heart's [E7] laughin' like a clown [A7]
I love those [D] dear hearts and [G] gentle people
Who [D] live and love in [A7] my home [D] town.
REPEAT 2nd verse
I feel so [G] welcome each [D] time that I return
'Til my happy heart's [E7] laughin' like a clown [A7]
I love those [D] dear, dear hearts and [G] gentle people
Who [D] never ever [A7] let you [D] down.
TAG: They live and love in my home town.
