_ _ Alright, thank you very much.
I want to, _ great folks here from North Carolina and Michigan.
_ Good folks.
Alright, I want to do a song especially for Tom Wolpat and that.
Tom was nice enough to invite me to come down and do the show.
We appreciate it, enjoyed visiting with you and talking about our dear friend,
Minnie Pearl, who as everybody knows, passed away today.
Great loss to the Grand Ole Opry and country music and our community at large.
But here's the song that brought me to the Grand Ole Opry.
I hope some of you still remember it.
Called Pick Me Up On Your Way Down.
Here it is. _ _
[Gm] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ You were mine for just a while.

_ _ And [C] you've never once looked back.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ You're the gossip of the town.
[A] But _ [Bb] you can still be found where you [C] tossed it on [C] the ground.
Pick me up on your [F] way down.
_ _ _ [Gb] Pick [F] me up on your way down.
When [Bb] you're blue and all alone.
When the [C] river starts to bore you.
Come on back where you [F] belong.
You [F] may be their pride and joy.
But [Bb] they'll find another toy.
Then [C] they'll take away your crown.
Pick me up on your way _ down.
[F] Next is Two Step.
Here we go.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [E] _ Changed your attitude.
_ Made you [Bb] haughty and slow-moved.
_ Your new [C] friends can't take the blame.
_ _ Underneath you're still the [D] same.
When [F] you learn these things are true.
_ [Bb] I'll be waiting here for you.
As [C] you tumble to the ground.
Pick me up on your way down.
[F] _ _ _ _ [Dm]
Pick [F] me up on your way down.
When you're [Bb] blue and all alone.
When their [C] glamour starts to bore you.
Come on back where you [F] belong.
You may [F] be their pride and joy.
But they'll [Bb] find another toy.
Then they'll [C] take away your crown.
Pick me up on your way down. _ _
