Chords for John Hartford & Johnny Cash - Tribute to Bill Monroe Medly

_ Hey, uh, [Abm] how long you been playing the banjo?
All your life, huh?
Yeah, probably [E] since I was about [Dm] 14.
Do you know when the banjo was [N] introduced?
When it was invented?
It is the only, I believe the [Abm] only American [N] instrument, isn't it?
Yeah, of the five-string banjo.
Yeah.
_ [E] I don't know, I think it's about the 1820s, but I know [N] that Joe Walker Sweeney was the first one to put [Ab] a thumbstring peg up here.
What's that for?
To get an [A] extra note with you?
_ Hey, why don't you demonstrate the old-fashioned style of banjo playing back when they didn't have fingers.
I believe they [Bm] called it [E] rapping, didn't they?
Yeah, that's the way I started out.
[A] Knock us off, then. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ All [N] right.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Hey, _ you know, speaking of the banjo, it's figured very, very strongly in _ bluegrass music.
I tell you, I think when that started, you could just about put a date on that.
I think it's about 1946 or 47.
[A] And it's when a boy from North [F] Carolina by the name of Earl Scruggs [N] came down right here on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry and joined [Ab] Bill Monroe and his bluegrass [E] boys.
And I think that's when it [G] exploded.
Well, Bill Monroe [B] has been a regular member of the Grand Ole Opry, [Ab] which is on Saturday night here in this building, for 30 years [A] this year, I hear.
_ What do you say, let's kind of do a tribute [E] to Bill [G] Monroe.
Let's do some bluegrass.
OK.
[Dm] All right.
Kick it off, Norman.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Good _ _ _ _ _ _ morning, _ _ _ _ good _ _ _ _ _ morning, child. _ _ _
_ _ [D] Do you need another meal, Skinner? _
_ _ _ Out on your [A] new mud line.
_ _ _ _ Oh, I [E] can't yodel.
_ _ _ _ And we'll get [A] Johnny Hartford, too. Yeah. _ _ _
_ _ Oh, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] I don't know how.
_ _ _ _ _ And that's [A] what's coming next.
Oh, _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ hey.
_ _ _ _ [D] Way down in Columbus, _ Georgia.
[A] _
Oh, to be [D] back in Tennessee.
_ Way down in Columbus.
Stop.
_ [A] _
Turn your [D] back on me.
[G] _
Go and leave me if [D] you wish to.
[G] _ Never let me [D] cross your _ mind.
In your heart.
You love _ another.
[A] _ Leave me little darling.
I [D] don't love.
_ _ [A] _ Leave me little darling.
_ _ _ [D] I _ don't.
[A] Oh, _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] yeah. _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ Blue.
[A] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ Kentucky.
[G] Keep on.
_ _ [D] I know.
_ _ [A] _
_ _ [D] Blue.
_ Kentucky.
[G] Keep on.
_ _ [D] Shine on.
[A] I don't want [D] to let me.
_ _ [G] It was all a moonlight [D] night.
The stars were shining [G] bright.
And I wondered from on [D] high.
I said, [A] you know, I [D] _ love Kentucky. [G] Keep on.
_ _ [D] Shine on.
[A] I don't want to [D] let me.
_ _ _ [G] Saturday evening, [Dm] about sundown.
High [A] on the hill and above the town.
Accordion played the fiddle on a half [E] wood ring.
You could hear it talk.
[D] You could hear it sing.
_ Yeah.
_ All right.
Let's do it. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I'll never forget that.
_ _ _ All the way.
I love this little.
I love you.
This time.
I'm going to go.
_ _ [G] Late in the evening.
[D] About sundown.
High on the _ hill and play the fiddle on a half wood ring.
You could hear it talk.
You could hear it sing. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] Late [D] in the evening.
About sundown.
High on the hill and above the town.
Accordion played the fiddle on a half wood ring.
You could hear it talk.
You could hear it sing. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
That's a good job, Logan. _ _ _
