Chords

[Verse]
C                                          Em
You know this old world is full of singers, but just a few are chosen

F                                C    G7
To tear your heart out when they sing

C                    Em
Imagine life without, all your radio heroes

         F           G7                    C
Like the outlaw that walks through Jessi's dreams

C                            Em
No there'll never be another, Red Headed Stranger

  F                                C    G7
The Man in Black and Folsom Prison Blues

C                      Em
The Okie From Muskogee, or Hello Darling

F              G7                     C
Lord I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes
[Chorus]
C                             F                       C
Who's gonna fill their shoes, who's gonna stand that tall

G7                                 C
Who's gonna play the Opry, and the Wabash Cannonball

C                      C7                  F
Who's gonna give their heart and soul, to get to me and you

       C       G7                     C
Lord I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes
[Verse 2]
C                               Em
God bless the boys from Memphis, Blue Suede Shoes and Elvis

F                                  C    G7
Much too soon he left this world in tears

C                     Em
They tore up the 50's, ol’ Jerry Lee and Charlie

     F                G7                 C
And “Go Cat Go” still echoes through the years

C                                    Em
You know the heart of country music, still beats in Luke the Drifter

        F                              C    G7
You can tell it when he sang I Saw the Light

C                         Em
Ol’ Marty, Hank and Lefty, why I can feel 'em right here with me

        F            G7                  C
On this silver eagle rolling through the night
[Chorus]
C                             F                       C
Who's gonna fill their shoes, who's gonna stand that tall

G7                                 C
Who's gonna play the Opry, and the Wabash Cannonball

C                      C7                 F
Who's gonna give their heart and soul, to get to me and you

       C       G7                     C
Lord I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes
