C G7 F C
You rolled out of Rosine a dedicated man
G7 F C
You drove those country back roads to a thousand one-night stands
F C F C
The music from your mandolin spread like wildfire in the wind
F G7
And echoed through the hollows and the hills so tell me Bill
[Chorus]
C F
Is the grass any bluer on the other side
G7 C
Did it look like old Kentucky when the gates swung open wide
F
Bet the good Lord’s got you playing somewhere up there every night
G7 C
Is the grass any bluer on the other side
[Verse]
G7 F C
I heard you on the Opry when I was just a kid
G7 F C
I tried my best to learn to sing and play the way you did
F C F C
Just like me the day you died the guitars and the fiddles cried
F G7
The music ain’t the same without you Bill we miss you still
[Chorus]
C F
Is the grass any bluer on the other side

Did it look like old Kentucky when the gates swung open wide

Bet the good Lord’s got you playing somewhere up there every night
G7 C
Is the grass any bluer on the other side
F C
Just like me the day you died
F C
The guitars and the fiddles cried
F G7
The music ain’t the same without you Bill
We miss you still
[Chorus]

Is the grass any bluer on the other side
