Old Time Country Halls Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F][G][C]

[Verse 1]
As I [C]pick up my
guitar [F]to sing another [C]song
I hear the walls of this old hall
- you've [D]done this thing [G]too long
You [C]know you've been around for years,
I guess you've shown [F]us all
I talk like this when I [C]reminisce
with an [F]old time [G]country [C]hall
I joined a tent show as a kid with
a [F]dream and an old guitar
[C]The Silvers All- Star Cavalcade
and [D]Dandy was [G]the star
He [C]taught me lots about the game,
today I under[F]stand
He was a great magi[C]cian,
Dandy [F]was a [G]fine old [C]man
I'm a [G]howlin' [D]cattle- [G]hand crooner
I'm an [F]old time [C]dinosaur
Hey, [F]let me sing where the [C]rafters ring
In an [F]old time [G]country [C]hall,
that's [F]right[C]
[F][G][C]
I've been on the road for thirty years
but [F]Dandy could double [C]that
And you'll find his faded poster
still in some [D]hall way out [G]back
I [C]like to go back stage and dream
sometimes and just re[F]call
The shows I've had, the [C]good and bad,
shared [F]with these [G]country hall[C]s
Take the old Town Hall Kalgoorlie with it's
[F]old time charm [C]and grace
And your mounting million
complexes [D]never will re[G]place
All [C]glass and steal and concrete,
some large and some [F]too small
So let me sing where the [C]rafters ring in an
[F]old time [G]country [C]hall,[F]
[C]hey[F][G][C]
We showed last night in the school of arts
and the [F]town was real run- [C]down
You'll find so many towns like that
[D]today as you move [G]around
Yeah, the [C]wind of change is blowin'
up such an economic [F]low
The old time shows we [C]used to know
[F]will soon be [G]off the [C]road
I'm a [G]howlin' [D]cattle- [G]hand crooner
I'm an [F]old time [C]dinosaur
Hey, [F]let me sing where the [C]rafters ring
In an [F]old time [G]country [C]hall
In an [F]old time [G]country [C]hall
In an [F]old time [G]country hall
[C]
