Whos Gonna Fill Their Shoes

Biography:

By most accounts, George Jones (born George Glenn Jones September 12, 1931 in Saratoga, Texas, died April 26, 2013, in Nashville, Tennessee), was the finest vocalist in the recorded history of country music. Initially, he was a hardcore honky tonker in the tradition of Hank Williams, but over the course of his career he developed an affecting, nuanced ballad style. In the course of his career, he never left the top of the country charts, even as he suffered innumerable personal and professional difficulties.

Capo 2nd Fret.

[Verse 1]

[G] This whole world's full of singers
[Bm] But, only a few were chosen
[C] To tear your heart out, when they [G] sing [D]
[G] Imagine life without 'em
[Bm] All your radio heros
Like the [C] 'Outlaw' that [D] walks through Jessie's [G] dreams

No, they'll never be another
[Bm] Red headed stranger
A [C] Man In Black, in 'Folsom Prison [G] Blues' [D]
The [G] Okie from Muskogee
[Bm] Or, 'Hello Darlin'
[C] Lord, I wonder - [D] who's gonna fill their [G] shoes

[Chorus]

[G] Who's gonna fill their shoes
[C] Who's gonna stand that [G] tall
[D] Who's gonna play the Opry
And the [G] 'Wallbash Cannonball'
Who's gonna give their [G7] heart and soul
To [C] get to me and you
Lord, I [G] wonder
[D] Who's gonna fill their [G] shoes

[Verse 2]
(Key Change)

God [G#] bless the boys from Memphis
[Cm] 'Blue Suede Shoes' and Elvis
[C#] Much too soon they left this world in [G#] tears [D#]
[G#] They tore up the 50's
Old [Cm] Jerry Lee and Charlie
And [C#] 'Go Cat Go', still [D#] echos through the [G#] years

(Key Change)

[A] You know the heart of country music
[C#m] Still beats in Luke the Drifter
You can [D] tell it when he sings 'I Saw The [A] Light' [E]
[A] Marty, Hank and Lefty
[C#7] I can feel them here with me
On this [D] Silver Eagle, [E] rolling through the [A] night

[Chorus]

[A] Who's gonna fill their shoes
[D] Who's gonna stand that [A] tall
[E] Who's gonna play the Opry
And the [A] Wallbash Cannonball
Who's gonna give their (A7) heart and soul
To [D]get to me and you
Lord, I [A] wonder
[E] Who's gonna fill their [A] shoes
yes, I [A] wonder
[E] Who's gonna fill their [D] shoes [A]
