Welcome to town?
I'll tell you what we're doing here
We're gonna get you guys to learn a song [B] since you guys have never played together before
You know, it's a bit of a challenge, you know figure key and whatever works good for everything

The [Em] toughest part about playing with people that you've never played before
You're not really sure how they're gonna play or what their own approach to arranging a song is
Maybe [A] we ought to like actually [G] get in a different area and like be surrounded
Maybe they'll say one of my favorite things about playing music is that when you find a groove? _ _
_ _ _ That's really why I play [Em] music _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ Everything's going great.
The songs [G] progressing just fine.
You know, we're working out the arrangements and getting everything [Em] tight
I _
[G] _ _ _ [Em] don't think I'm doing all right, but [G] compared to these guys
They're awesome tickers.
I got a couple of friends who I invited to come meet you guys
Might have heard of them.
One of them's named Ricky Skaggs _ _ _ _
And the other one is a guy who was a big influence on me at mr.
Earl Scruggs _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ I'm really nervous about playing for Ricky and Earl.
They're like two of my [Em] heroes naturally.
I'm very [Bm] afraid
_ Playing the song while looking at Earl's gonna be the [G] toughest part
I gotta think they're a little nervous, but if I was them
I [A] would be really excited [G] to _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] Up _
[A] next Sugarland and [E] later Rascal [F#]
