Miss Lynn Whitman, thank you very much for that fine job.
And now neighbor, I think I'll go right [Bm] back over here
and visit with my good friend, Ernest Tubb,
and see if I can't find out who this lovely young lady is.
[B] Why, thank you, Jimmy.
In fact, [G] I want you, Jimmy, and all the folks
to meet this lovely young [B] lady
because she's our special guest [N] tonight from Virginia.
Fine recording artist for the choral people,
and her name is [G] Patsy Cline.
Patsy Cline.
How are you, Patsy?
Just fine.
Nice to see you.
And the bell [N] rings with me now, Ernest.
This is the young lady you've been telling us so much about.
Right you are, Jimmy.
This is the young lady that I've been bragging about.
And Patsy, I think that you should give the folks
a sample of this fine singing of yours
that I've been talking so much about.
How about it, huh?
Well, thank you, Ernest.
I'd like to do one of my favorites
that I recorded some time back.
A church, and [C] then goodbye.
[C#] [D]
[G]
[A#] [F#] [G] The first thing was the church
Then [D] the altar
[F] [D] Where we claimed each other
With tears of joy [G]
we [Am] cried
[A#] [G] Our friends we'll [B] stay [G]
forever
[C] [Gm] As [D] we walked from the church
[G#] Side [G] by side
[F#] [G] The next [D] thing [F] was [C] a [D] crowded cold [Am] room
[Bm] [Am] [F#m] And [D] like strangers [Bm] we [Am] sat [G] by
Then I heard the judge make [C] his decision
And [D] no longer be [G] man [Em] and [Bm] [Fm] wife
[Em] [F] [D]
[G]
[F#] I [G] hate the sight [D] of that courtroom
Where men made [Bm] laws
[Am] Push God's [G] laws aside
[Bm]
Then [Em] the clerk [B] wrote us so
In the [C] records
[A] Our [D] [Bm] church, [Am] our courtroom, and [G] then goodbye
We walked from that courtroom
[Bm]
[C#] We [D] [Bm] [D]
shook hands and once again [G]
we [D] cried
[C] [G]
Then [B] it was the end [C] of our story
[B] [C] Our [D]
church, our courtroom, [Am] and then [G] goodbye
[Bm] [Fm]
