E    A    E    B    E    A    C#m    B    E


[Verse 1]
E                                        B       E       A
Well I love the sound of a fiddle string
           E                                      B          E     A
In the hands of a man who can make it sing
E                              B             C#m
Playin’ that melody clear and sweet
       A                               B               E     A     E     B
It’ll touch your heart and tickle your feet


[Verse 2]
E                          B        E    A
When I hear that mandolin
E                                 B             E      A
It’s like the voice of a good old friend
E                               B         C#m
Takes me back to a simpler day
A                              B        E
Makes my troubles melt away


[Chorus 1]
A                 E
Whoah-oh, let’s get started
B                           E
Who knows when we’ll be parted
A                E                        B
No time to be downhearted on this night
Continúa después del anuncio
A                         E
Let’s play some good old music
B              E
My heart sure could use it
A                 E                    B
Live it up a little while we can
                                                         E    A    E    B    E    A    C#m
Playin’ in a back porch bluegrass band
    B    E





[Verse 3 / Bass Solo]
E                                     B                 E    A
Well I know a man who plays the bass
            E                B         E    A
With a big old grin on his face
            E                      B            C#m
‘Cause every note so deep and low
A                       B        E    A    E    B
Strikes a chord in his soul


[Verse 4]
E                         B         E      A
When I’ve had all I can bare
        E                   B         E     A
Of a life that isn’t always fair
E                          B         C#m
Nothing sets my soul at ease
               A                 B          E
Like that high-bound harmony


[Chorus 2]
                             E   A   E   B
...bluegrass band


[Bridge / Guitar Solo]
                       A
And when it’s late
                  E
When the night has fallen
              B
We can play
                A            E
With the katydids callin’
                A
And we’ll know
C#m                    B
Long after we’re gone
                                  ( A    E    B    E    A    E    B    B ) x2
They’ll keep up their song


[Chorus 3 / Outro]
                             E    A    E    B    E    A    C#m    B    E
