Chords for George Jones - I Don't Need Your Rockin' Chair (LIVE) & Country Music Hall of Fame Induction

There are a lot of ways to define country music, but I can do it in just two words.
Ladies and gentlemen, George Jones! _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I _ [C] _ _ [Bb] _ [G] _ _ _
don't need your [C] rocking chair. _
You gave it all, you made a [G] care. _ _ _
I still got me on [D] my thing.
_ _ [Am]
No, I [Dm] don't need your [G] rocking chair. _ _
I ain't ready for the [D] junkyard jet.
I _ _ still feel like a new [G] corvette. _ _
Might take a little longer, but [D] I'll get there. _ _
Well, I don't need your [G] rocking chair.
[D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [A] I [Bbm] _ [B] _ [G] _ [Gm] [C] still _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ got me on [D] my thing. _
_ I ain't straight.

He does his rocking _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _

on_
I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ have the best job in the house tonight.
You know, there's nobody sitting at home watching tonight,
or nobody in this audience that wants to see you retire to your rocking chair by any means.
But, but, we do want you to enjoy being the next member of the Country Music Hall of Fame. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Love you. _ _
Sweet blue. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, _ _ _ _ _ _ thank you so much.
_ _ _ Thank you.
_ _ _ Hello, blue. _ _ _
_ _ _ Greatest fan. _ _
Thank you so much.
I don't know what to say.
The only thing I can say is that country music has been awful good to me
throughout a whole bunch of years.
And I'll tell you what, I'd like to just thank a few people.
I'd like to thank the good Lord above, first of all,
because He made it all possible, surely.
_ _ And I naturally got to thank all the _ fans in the whole wide world,
especially the country music fans.
_ It's been a great career, and I ain't over it yet,
and I ain't through, and I ain't giving up,
and I don't need no rocking chair, but I'll tell you what,
I want to thank one more person for making it real possible for me
of being able to be on this stage tonight to receive this award.
Between her and God, she's been one of the greatest ladies in the whole wide world.
She saved my life, and I'd just like to acknowledge my wife, Nancy, if you'll do that. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I love you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You know, I've won a lot of awards, not bragging,
a lot of awards over the period of years,
and each and every one of them was fantastic.
They made you feel great, and they kept you going,
and made you try harder and work harder.
But this has got to be the greatest one in the world.
It's made my day, it's made my whole life.
Thank you so much.
I love you.
