Chords for Ricky Van Shelton and Jack Greene - Statue of a Fool

_ All right.
Now earlier we talked about this.
It seems last, this year, at Fanfare?
Yeah, this year.
This year at Fanfare, Jack Green and Ricky Van Shelton got together and
performed Statue of a Fool for the first and only time.
This will be the second time.
The first time
on television.
Right.
And Statue of a Fool, as we pointed out, was a big hit for Jack Green 20 years
ago, 1969.
And then 20 years later for Ricky Van Shelton in 1989.
So tonight, the first time on
television, they're going to sing it together.
