Tell me, you've been a doorman here for a long time.
Since the Grand Ole Opry was a brand new opry.
Well, I know, since Minnie Pearl was still in Orster, and since Jimmy Dickens was very little.
I know, I've heard all your lines.
Well, so what's the question?
Well, you must have seen a hundred acts.
I've seen a hundred acts.
Well, [G#] how come you still watch the show?
[B] Well, how come you still watch the show?
Well, because it's my job as Wardrobe Tanya, so it's a seam I need to be [G#] here.
Oh, well you can go on home, I'll take care of that.
Oh, [G] no, I'm with you, you'll never.
[N] I remember the first night I worked on Wardrobe here.
Yeah?
Yeah.
You had me press that whole suit, and you wasn't even on the show either.
Yeah, I tried to pass myself off as one of them ganglin' boys.
Yeah, they were wonderful that night.
Yeah, they were.
I'll never forget how they seemed to you.

A bowl of soup later
And [D] a pat on the shoulder
[A] And by midnight
They're back on the [D] street
[A] They [D] walk to the corner
Of 4th Street and Broadway
And then take the first alley [A] on the right
And one of them asks the stranger
How about a hand
And he gives them one [Em] finger at [D] a time
Then they spot an old buddy
With a bottle of heaven
And then pass around what means [G]
everything
One bottle for four
[D] Thank God someone's [G] poor
And [A] now the midnight choir starts [D] to [G] [D] sing
Will they [G] have Morgan David in heaven
