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.

Ain't Nobody Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone Recorded by George Jones Written by George Glenn Jones and Earl Montgomery
GCG Well I remember back in my younger days of high school D7 Back then baseball was my biggest dream GC But when I stood in line for my turn at bat G I found that wasn't where they wanted me at A7D7G I wound up totting the water for all the teams
CG Well there ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm leaving D7 There ain't nobody ever loved me very long GC No matter how much I miss our show G I get kicked around everywhere I go A7D7G There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone
CG So when my Uncle Sam called me to serve my country D7 I stood up brave and smiled and packed my duds GC But to my surprise when I got there G They gave me the boots and cut my hair A7D7G I wound up scrubbing the floor and a peeling spuds
Repeat #2
CG Well I met me a pretty little girl one day in Nashville D7 I loved her more than all of my wildest dreams GC She took me for my money my house and my boat G And didn't even leave me a goodbye note A7D7G I gave it all up boy did she strip me clean
