G D A D D
[Verse]
D
When I was just a young boy
G
My daddy sat me down
D
And he taught me to appreciate
E A
That good old country sound
D
There was Johnny Cash and Ernest Tubb
G
I knew their songs quite well
D
But the one that I remember most
A D
Was the queen, Miss Kitty Wells
[Verse]
D
She could sing a country song
G
Like none I’d ever heard
D
Cause she poured out her heart and soul
E7 A
With every single word
D
And when she sang a gospel song
G
You knew it was no lie
D
And songs of loss and tradtegy
A D
That would make a grown man cry
[Chorus]
A D
So, God bless the queen of country music
G D
She’s brought us all more happiness
E7 A
Than words could ever tell
A D
Yes, God bless the queen of country music
G D
He gave the world a treasure
A D
When He gave us Kitty Wells
[Solo]
D G D A D D
[Verse]
D
I can’t forget the first time
G
I went to see her show
D
I walked inside and took my seat
E7 A
Right there on the front row
D
And as she walked out on the stage
G
A chill came over me
D
As I listened to her singing
A D
This haunting melody
G G
I can’t help wondering
D A D
Who’s holding you tight
[Chorus]
A D
So, God bless the queen of country music
G D
She’s brought us all more happiness
E7 A
Than words could ever tell
A D
Yes, God bless the queen of country music
G D
He gave the world a treasure
A D
When He gave us Kitty Wells
[Outro]
G D
This is Just away for me to say
A D
We love you Kitty Wells
