Chords for 50th Presidential Inauguration Ball for Ronald Reagan (1/19/1985) - Part 13: Ray Charles

You know, in my day, they used to end the prom by everybody singing Good Night, Ladies.
_ And on New Year's Eve, obviously, everybody sang _ _ Auld Lang Syne.
And I can't think of a more appropriate way to end this wonderful evening of ours
than with the singing of America the Beautiful, and
I can't think of anyone who does a more stirring and spiritual kind of rendition
_ than my good friend, my buddy, Mr.
Ray Charles. _ _ _
