[C]
Sheets dance on the line, [F] white as the clouds gone by
[Am] [G]
Screen door kickin' time, as kids [C] melt into the sky
You're making your moves, tryin' [F] just to stay alive
[G]
And the music is hot, [C]
WSM on your [F] transistor radio
[G]
A song about trains, you can [C] hear the whistle blow
Waylon walks the line, Merle's mama [F] tries to tell him so
And [Am] [G]
the music is hot, [F] you got a story about 20 miles long
[C] You got a tune like a number [G] one song
You got the sweat like the shirt off my back
[C] You got the heart, let me open it a crack
[F] Fiddle and steel, takin' you higher
[C] Past cotton fields and telephone wires
[G] Out to the church and the gospel choir and [G] you're [C] gone
Sun goin' down, you're scroungin' [F] to feed the dog
You're [G]
wearin' a dress you saw in [C] a catalog
[F] [C]
The crickets have started to sing with [F] those old bullfrogs
[G] And the music is hot, [C]
you tuck in the kids and think of [F] a nice long bath
[G]
You notice your mom, starin' back from [C] a photograph
Quick as you turn, you're certain you [F] can hear her laugh
[Am] [G] And the music is hot, you [F] got a story about 20 [C] miles long
You got a tune like a number one song
[G] You got the sweat like the shirt off my back
[C] You got the heart, [E] let me open it a crack
[F] Fiddle and steel, takin' you [C] higher
Past cotton fields and telephone wires
[G] Beyond the church and the gospel choir and [F] you're gone
Gone, gone, gone
[C] [Em] [F] [C]
[G] [C]
Sheets dance on the line, [F] white as the clouds gone by
[Am] [G]
Screen door kickin' time, as kids [C] melt into the sky
You're making your moves, tryin' [F] just to stay alive
[G]
And the music is hot, [C]
