Miss Jean Shepard if you will
Hello there Jean
[F#m] [C#] [D#]
[B] One of my favorite young men in my life, Little David, he's watching
This one's called Saturday Night [C#] Scent
[A] [E]
[F#] [A#] [B]
I'll pick up the morning paper
I'm gonna get a new shirt
[E]
For [F#] myself a [B] second coat
[A]
[E] He'll think I'm [F#] just getting [D#m] up
[F#] He won't know that [E] I've been cheating
[F#] Truth is I'm just [B] coming in
Thought of you this [A] Sunday
[E] I'm coming in
[F#] From a Saturday [B] Night Scent
And
[F#] [E] let him know
[B] [E] [B]
[F#]
[E] [B]
[G#]
[E] I [G#] know how much it'd hurt him
If he [B] only knew where his baby had been

Next week we're gonna be up in New Jersey at McGuire Air Force Base
Along with a lot of our Grand Ole Opry stars
Miss Tammy Wynette, Ronnie [D#m] Millsap, and uh
Ronnie Dove's gonna be there, he ain't an Opry member but he's gonna be there ain't he?
And the four guys are gonna be there, great talent
Up to McGuire next week
I haven't seen Ronnie Millsap since he was here last year by the way
We're glad to have him, we're glad he's here tonight
Here's a song that was awfully good to us
A couple of years back, thanks to all you nice people
Thanks to Bill Anderson who wrote it, one called Slippin' Away
[E] [B]
Monday's promise is Tuesday's lie
Saturday's party is Sunday's fight
Something's wrong with you and I
Love don't [F#] long, but used [B] to be right
And I can feel it slipping away
Slowly, slowly, slipping away
[E] It'll be gone in a few [B] more days
If we don't stop this love of ours from slipping away
Easy kisses or thirsty sprouts
We can live two days in a row
When our world's not upside down
Here we stand [F#] [B] and go
And I can feel it slipping away
Slowly, slowly, slipping away
[E] It'll be gone in [B] a few more days
If we don't stop this love of ours from slipping away
[G#] [C#]
Red, violet, star blue
Sugar, sweet, some of the time
This puzzle's missing a piece or two
Pain was never the one
And I can feel it slipping away
Slowly, slowly, slipping away
[G#] It'll be [F#] gone in a few [C#] more days
If we don't stop this love of ours from slipping away
I can feel it slipping away
[G#] [F#]
[C#]
[C#] It's slipping [D#] away
[C#] Ladies
[F#] [N]
sitting on my left, I can honestly [B] say that country music and the Grand Ole Opry
is if not the biggest part of her life, certainly a good hunk of it.
Miss Jeannie Shepherd.
How are you, Tony?
I'm fine, darling.
Thank you.
Did you ever get tired of singing Slipping Away?
Because I know that every show you do, [G#] somebody requests Slipping Away.
Yes.
We didn't do it.
Some people got mad because we didn't do it on last year's broadcast.
What did you do to Slipping Away, you know?
So we decided we'd do it this year.
And you never get tired of it?
No, you never get tired of a good song.
You ever forget the words?
Nope.
You've never forgotten the words to that [B] song?
No, never have.
You probably
If I do, I've got a good prompter behind me.
My husband, Benny, my husband is always standing up. That's true.
And he knows the words to every song I've ever sang.
He knows the words?
Yes.
27 years I've been recording, [C#m] and he knows the words to every [Em] song I've sung.
He's a big asset.
Yes.
He cuts a lot of records with the [G] Osborne Brothers, and he's a great musician.
He certainly is.
You did a great turn out there tonight, and I want to congratulate you on it.
