Chords for Chubby Wise - Lester Flatt - Bill Monroe

to show me just what he wanted.
He'd say,
Shelby, [G] _
on that footprint, he'd say, do a long bow like_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ And he said, make it [E] go_ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _

_ _ Now she's up in heaven, she's with the [A] angel _ [B] band.
I know I'm going to meet her in that [E] promised land.
But every time the [Em] snow falls, it brings a glimmer [A] of rain.
[B] Hard to find her when the snow is [E] on the ground. _ _
_ _ I traced a little footprint in the [B] snow.
_ _ I found a little [Db] footprint in [E] the snow. _
_ I blessed that happy _ day,
_ _ [A] but I [B] found her when the snow was on [E] _ the_ _
_ _ _ [G] And that's what Bill wanted, [B] and that's how I progressed the style
that I have right now, [G] Bill Monroe told me.
A happy [C] July that you [G] want,
But in my heart that longs [D] for you,
_ _ _ [G]
I just keep it there [C] so I won't be [G] alone
In her little cabin [D] all [G] alone in here.
_ _ [C] For someone has [G] taken from _ _ me
And left me here [D] all alone.
_ _ _ [G] Just listen to the [C] rain beat on my door
In her little [D] cabin all [G] alone in here.
_ _ Something had [E] just happened in Lester's [Bb] life
I think that made a big impression on him.
He and Lester loved Bill Monroe a whole lot
the same way he loved Earl Scruggs.
Lester had an awful lot of pride.
When somebody crossed him, his way of dealing
was just not speaking sometimes, just leaving it alone.
But I'm glad [Bbm] they got back [G] together.
[C] For someone has [G] taken from _ me
And left me here [D] all alone.
_ _ _ [G] _ Just listen to the [C] rain beat on my [G] door
In her little [D] cabin [G] all alone in here. _
Where Bill first heard me was on the Bristol [Eb] station
when he'd come [F] through while I was [C] listening. _ _ _ _ _
