Biography:
Singer/ Songwriter George Morgan was the father of country singer Lorrie Morgan.
Morgan was born to Zachariah "Zach" Morgan and Ethel Turner in Waverly, Tennessee, but was raised in Barberton, Ohio. He was, along with a few other contemporaries (most notably Eddy Arnold and Jim Reeves), referred to as a "country crooner;" his singing style being more similar to that of Bing Crosby or Perry Como than that of Ernest Tubb or Lefty Frizzell.
Morgan was a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1948

As the lights were turned off and the curtain was closed
C D7 G7
And all of the songs had been sung
C F
At the Grand Ole Opry I sat there and wondered
C G7 C
How this great country show had begun
F
Did the Great One above us gather some tears
C D7 G7
With some heartache He took from life’s page
C F
And mix it together with laughter and joy
C G7 C
And sprinkle it over the stage
F
Did He speak to the heart of all the great stars
C D7 G7
Did He help them put soul in their songs
C F
And maybe He guided their foot steps in life
C G7 C
And showed them just where they belong
F
Could it be He was thinking one Saturday night
C D7 G7
Of something that we all could share
C F
So He started the Opry for you and for me
C G7 C
And He put this great show on the air
F
Did He know there’d be happiness there on the stage
C D7 G7
Did He know men would cry in the wings
C F
Is He pleased with the smiles on the faces of thousands
C G7 C
As each star steps out there and sings
F
And each Saturday night over forty some years
C D7 G7
Folks have lined up for blocks just to see
C F
How the Great One has played the best show in the land
C G7 C
