D
His picture was in all the papersThey said that a legend had passed
G The late evening news did a special report D And swore that his memory would last D They're playing his records all weekend G Praising the life that he lived D Nashville is rough on the living A7 D But she really speaks well of the dead D The wife that they interviewed crying
Is the same one who left him last fall
G And the record producer who called him a hero D Is the one who wouldn't answer his calls D The ladies they sit over coffee G Bragging bout sharing his bed D They didn't want him around when he's living A7 D But he's sure a good friend when he's dead G D They observed twenty seconds of silence A7 D At the Opry on Saturday night G D And they're searching the bars and the basements E7 A7 For some souvenir of his life D They're planning a book for September
Showing his plain country roots
G Any they're selling the rights to the movie D And the Hall of Fame's getting his boots D At the funeral somebody recited a poem G That told how he suffered and bled D Nashville is rough on the living A D But she really speaks well of the dead G D Yeah Nashville is rough on the living A D But she really speaks well of the dead
