I'm Gone Ukulele

Key: GHard

Some cGhewing gum and candy, some magazines and snacks

Some sCtarting over money that I've been holding back

A cGhange of clothes and notepad to write a letter back to say so Dlong

A Gone-way ticket saying good-bye to everything

TChrew my wedding band out the window of the train

GAll I want's my freedom, reclaim my maiden name

I'm moving Don because I'm Ggone

You can Ctell the Ftruth or you can Clie

You can Csay I Fleft you or I Cdied

Say I'm Cin the HimalAmayas on some Fspiritual Cquest

And could Fspend years looking for the Clight G7

Say I'm Cin the witness Amprogram with the FF.B.CI

Say a U.CF.O. abdAmucted me from Fhome

You can Csay what you Amchoose, but I Ftell you the Ctruth

You can Csay for sG7ure I'm Cgone, because I'm Ggone

You thinGk that you're above me, like I'm not good enough

You Cmake me feel unwanted, unwelcome and unloved

You're Gselfish, vain and greedy; you're hateful, rude and rough

And you're so Dwrong

But you'd Grather live unhappy and tolerate the pain

Than Cseparate and have me taking half of everything

Well, I'm Gleaving your possessions, left on the good-bye train

Left you aDlone because I'm Ggone

You can Chave the Fhouse, the car, the Cboat

My Crecords, Fbooks and stereCo

The Cdog and the Amcat, my ceFramic shop out Cback

My Fdoll collection and my Cclothes G7

You can Ckeep all our Amfriends and all the Fpictures in the Cden

And the Amfluffy Fpillows you sleep Con G7

But when you Clay your Amhead on that Fbig feather Cbed

You can Crest asG7sured I'll be Cgone; I'll be Ggone

You can Gtell the Ctruth or you can Glie

You can Gsay I Cleft you or I Gdied

Say I'm Gin the HimaEmlayas on someC spiritualG quest

And could Cspend years looking for the Glight D

Say I'm Gin the witness Emprogram with the CF.B.GI

Say a GU.F.O. aEmbducted me froCm home

You can Gsay what you Emchoose, but I Ctell you the Gtruth

You can Gsay for sDure I'mG gone, because I'mD gone

Some cGhewing gum and candy, some magazines and snacks

Some sCtarting over money that I've been holding back

Up on Sugar Hill there are love birds talkin'

Up on Sugar Hill where the good times roll

In The Meantime

Key: CMedium

(HARMONICA)

YCou know people been talking about the end of time

Ever since time began

We've been lFiving in the last days

Ever since the first day Cever since the dawn of Man

Well nobody knows when the end is coming

But sFome people tell you they Cdo

Well it might be today, it might be tomorrow,

Or G7in a million yFears or tCwo...

In the mAmeantime, in betwCeen time,

Let us mAmake time to make it rCight

And let us Amnot fear what is nCot clear

Faith should Ambe your guide,

Just follow tGhis advice..

And...

TFhink about love; Think about living

Think about love sharing and giving

DCrop the Doomsday attitude and let that spirit fFlow

These are wonderful times we're living in

God still walks in the hearts of men

And ECden's garden wAmaves within so G7let the flowers gCrow

Well we rCant and we rave about the "good ol' days"

And how different it was "back then"

Well the grFeatest days we've ever known

Are the dCays we're living in

Well we worry about earthquakes,

Aliens from outer space, nFuclear holocaCust

Well we're so consumed with the fear of dying

The jG7oy of lFiving is lCost

In the mAmeantime, in betwCeen time,

Let us mAmake time to make amCends

Live the gAmood life, just treat this pClanet right

And try to Amall be friends and say with Gme again..

Ohhh...!

ThFink about life; Think about living

Think about love - caring and giving

DCrop this Doomsday attitude and get Fon with the show

We've walked on the moon; been to Mars

Technically we've come so far

But stCill we wonder Amwho we are

The faGrther along we'll live Con

(Farther along we will live) F

CAmC

YCou know people been talking about the end of time

Ever since time began

We've been lFiving in the last days

Ever since the first day eCver since the dawn of Man

Well nobody knows when the end is coming

Well thFat's what the Scriptures sCay

But that's a secret known only to God,

He sG7ays to just wFatch and pCray

In the mAmeantime, what's the hurCry?

In the mAmeantime now don't you wCorry

In the mAmeantime live, laugh- be Cmerry

In the mAmeantime, in the mCeantime

In the mAmeantime troubles gConna show us

In the mAmeantime the sky is sCtill above us

In the mAmeantime you know God's gConna love us

In the mAmeantime, in the mCeantime, in the mAmeantime

Blue Valley Songbird

Key: GMedium

She waGs born in a place calledD7 Blue ValleyG

At the Cfoot of the Tennessee Ghills

With the Cblue birds and blue bells and Gblue mountain water

And the A7sound of the Blue WhippoorD7will

But Gthere was no D7peace in the Gvalley

Her Cdaddy a cruel ruthless Gman

CUsed and abused her Gmind and her Embody

So her Gmama said D7run while you Gcan

So at fifteen she D7took to the Ghighway

BeClongings and guitar in Ghand

And she Cburied herself in her Gmu-Emsic

The Gone thing she D7did underGstand

And she sings like a B7bird and she Cwrites like a Gpoet

Her voice has that high lonesome D7sound

She Ghurts and her B7songs are the Cbest way to Gshow it

So the CBlue Valley Gsongbird keeps D7traveling Garound

She hopes D7someday she will Gmake it

And Ceveryone says that she Gwill

When Cshe comes to town Gcrowds flock around

To see the A7girl from the Tennessee D7hills

She writes Gletters back D7home to her Gmomma

In Ccare of the preacher in Gtown

They're Csacred to her so she Greads them at Emchurch

And so her Gdaddy canD7not track her Gdown

And she sings like a B7bird and she Ccries like a Gbaby

Whenever she turns off the D7lights

She's a Gwhole lot B7lonesome and a Clittle bit Gcrazy

From Cmemories and Gmiseries and D7dreams gone Gawry

Blue dress B7blue shoes a Cblue CadiGllac

A band dressed in blue by her D7side

GInstruments B7tied to the Ctop and the Gback

Cause the CBlue Valley Gsongbird is D7singing toGnight

One nighters B7honky tonks Cyears flying Gby

CShe's never Gmade it but D7Lord knows she Gtries

Expressing the B7feelings Cshe holds inGside

And the CBlue Valley Gsongbird is D7singing toGnight

Oh the CBlue Valley Gsongbird is D7singing toGnight

And she sings like a B7bird and she Cwrites like a Gpoet

Tennessee Homesick Blues

Key: CMedium

New YoCrk City ain't no kind of place

For a Fcountry girl with a friendly face

If you Csmile people look at you G7funny they Ftake it Cwrong

The greenest state in the land of the free

And the Fhome of the Grand Ole Opry

Is Ccalling me back to my G7Smoky FMountain Chome

I wish I had my old fishing pole

And was Fsitting on the banks of the fishing hole

Eating Cgreen apples and G7waiting for the Ffish to Cbite

Life ain't as simple as it used to be

Since Fthe big apple took a bite out of me

And CLord I'm so Tennessee G7homesick Fthat I could Cdie

But I ain't been home in I Fdon't know Cwhen

If I Fhad it all to do Cover again

Tonight I'd sleep in G7my old Ffeather Cbed

What I wouldn't give for a Flittle bitty Ctaste

Of FMama's homemade Cchocolate cake

Tennessee homesick G7blues running Fthrough my Chead

Mama you can fluff my feather bed

Just as Fsoon as I can I'm gonna head

Back Cto the Tennessee G7hills and it Fbetter be Csoon

Daddy you can load the rifles up

We're gonna Fload them dogs on the pickup truck

And Chead off to Calhoun G7County and Fcatch us a Ccoon

But I ain't been home in I Fdon't know Cwhen

If I Fhad it all to do Cover again

Tonight I'd sleep in G7my old Ffeather Cbed

Eating grits and gravy Fand country Cham

Go to Fchurch on Sunday with Cdinner on the grounds

Tennessee homesick G7blues are running Fthrough my Chead

And I ain't been home in I Fdon't know Cwhen

If I Fhad it all to do Cover again

Tonight I'd sleep in G7my old Ffeather bed

Good CLord have mercy on Fa country Cgirl

E7Trying to make a living in a Frhinestone world

It's hard to be a diamond in a AmrhineG7stone Fworld

With CTennessee homesick G7blues running through my Fhead

I've got those CTennessee homesick G7blues running through my Fhead
