Fiddle In The Sky

INTRO: C  G C  G

    Am           Em/G        
Sometimes in the middle of the 
  F      C      F
lonely night
                       C       Am
No one there to be his friend
              Em/G            F   
He'd grab the fiddle and he'd hold
    C      F
 it tight
                               C   
The angels there would gather 
       F
'round him
And he would play all through the 
C      F
night
                              C    
He would play all through the night
  F



         Dm             Em        
He would play 'til everything 
     E
seemed alright

      Am          Em/G      
And I cried every time that I 
  F           C           F
watched him play, lord
                           C     F
He really had something to say
                         C
And I watched him steal away


   Am              Em/G         F
He built himself a cabin at the 
         C      F
foot of a hill
                       C
He never knew the city street
   Am             Em/G       
He never had much money, never 
  F        C      F
needed a will
                       C        F
All he had was one old fiddle
                         C    F
And he passed it down to me
                         C    F
And he passed it down to me


        Dm               Em       
So I'll play it, for the world 
     E
seems alright
      Am            Em/G   F     
Gonna play 'til the angels dance 
       C          F
in the sky, lord
                             C    F
I'll play this fiddle 'til I die
                             C    F
I'll play this fiddle 'til I die
                             C    F
I'll play this fiddle 'til I die
                             C    F
I'll play this fiddle in the sky
