Thank you for [E] coming.
[Dm] Other [Em] songs [B] for us?
Oh, I would.
[C] I'll [Em] choose a [C] song for you.
[G] What's happening today is 92 [C] years of memories flashing in front of me.
Oh,
[Am] that's my girl, Bless Her Heart.
[C] The [F] reason I'm standing here alive is Patsy Cline put her arms around me and hugged me [Dm] and told me
they would [C] go ahead and do the show that night in Camden, Tennessee.
[G] How lucky I am just [C] to be
I had a rough, [G] rough life.
It started in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.
And I had a little old guitar, about the size of a ukulele, that I had bought selling seed.
But I had a hard time selling them because there weren't [F] many neighbors at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
And my daddy didn't plant a lot of flowers.
[G] [C] So he bought them.
And I got the little guitar.
[G] How lucky I am
What I really [C] wanted to do is to play the guitar and [Bm] meet the Grand Ole Opry people.
And [F] this right here, the Grand Ole Opry book here.
[C] [G] When I first started, which I guess you would say professional, would be in the early [C] 50s [Em] in Washington, D.C.,. where I lived. Patsy Cline and I, my band backed her. I played rhythm guitar. [G] And I called my band, Jeremy Haney and the National Troubadours. [Em] And we did this for several years. And then Patsy went on the Arthur Godfrey Talent Show in New [Dm] York. And her [Cm] song was Walking After [Ab] Midnight. [Db] [C] That was the song she won a talent [A] contest with. [Cm] [C] [F]
[C] [Ab] [G] And he liked it [Am] so much and the people liked it so much, he kept her over three more weeks. Jeremy Haney, hanging on to her apron strength. If that [Bb] had a broke, [F] that's me and Patsy Cline. That's me and that's Patsy [Bb] Cline right there. [N] Randy, I mean, Charlie Dick, her husband and I had just got back from the babysitter, [Eb] picking up her little boy and girl. [Bb] And we were getting ready to fly [F] to Camden to do a concert for a needed family. [Bb] The airport had just announced [Ebm] by the satellite there's a bad storm, [Eb] the winds and the rain. [F] And told Randy, my pilot, [Bb] he had a single engine small plane, don't go [Eb] up. [Bb] [F] Now he was a good pilot, safe, he never had any record bad rain. But he said if it gets too bad, I'll turn around and go [Bb] back. Then Patsy walked over to me [F] and she said, Jeremy, you haven't seen your [Bb] children and your wife for a long time. And she said, Hawkshire Hawkins, Cowboy Corpus and I will do the concert. You go home and be with [Eb] your wife. I said, [F] okay, honey. I got in my car and [Bb] I drove back to Virginia where I live, Manassas, Virginia. [F] I [Bb] got there around 6.30 in the morning, 6.30 or 7. [Eb] I figured I'm going to surprise mama, now she knows I'm on tour with that. She don't know that I'm arriving. And when I walked in real quiet, didn't want to wake her [F] up. She was sitting on the side of the bed, tears pouring down her face. And then finally she said she had just heard on the radio that our plane had crashed and there was no survivors. I'm dead, we're all dead. She felt she did not have a husband and nobody to help her raise her children. And she was hysterical. I'm going to be next. I better get out of [Bb] here. That's where you feel something's going on. [Eb] Time for me to make a U-turn. [F] After I got out of the club working and my wife and I were singing together going to [A] nursing homes and churches and all, [Bb] I took a job as sergeant of the guards in charge of the security for Guy Cove. I still go to church and I sing. And I do these songs now, but not in clubs and all that. The [Ebm] moments that I want to remember forever is going back to the home [F] place. My daddy walking down that rocky road. [Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
