VERSE: DAGD Country music was the backbone of his life A Any song you choose it, GD He’d play anything you liked. A Most every evening, GA You could find me by his side. BmEmA Where I’d lend the third part harmony to mom and dad’s duets. BmEmA Unill lullabies hung from my eyes and I wandered off to bed.
CHORUS: DCGA And I can see my mother in this country home DCG I got a sister and two brothers all my own DCGA And believe me family unity was ever so strong DCG When I heard my father’s fiddle play, AD Some good old country songs. CG (When my father’s fiddle played) AD Some good old country songs. CG (When my father’s fiddle played)
VERSE: DAGD Country neighbors, they say that he’s the best around A To play their favorites GDA At every Friday night hoe-down, and late in the evening GA With the neighbors homeward bound BmEmA His closings were as customary as turning out the lights BmEmA A quarter for my pocket, a love song for his wife.
CHORUS: DCGA And I can see my mother in this country home DCG I got a sister and two brothers all my own DCGA And believe me family unity was ever so strong DCG When I heard my father’s fiddle play, AD Some good old country songs. CG (When my father’s fiddle played) AD Some of those good old country songs. CG (When my father’s fiddle played)

BREAK: ABmF#m Ah, but where oh where has the time gone? GABm It’s been years since my ears have been played upon. AG I heard the fiddler lost his tune in some bar room ABm And his family’s to another town, it must be lonesome EmA Wishing all the lost and somehow find you now
CHORUS: DCGA And I can see my mother, she lives all alone DCG I got a sister and two brothers but they’re all grown DCGA And believe me family unity was ever so strong DCGAD When I heard my father’s fiddle play some good old country songs. CGAD (Heard my father’s fiddle play) some good old country songs. CGAD (Heard my father’s fiddle play) some good old country songs. CGAD (Heard my father’s fiddle play) some of those good old country songs. CG When I heard him, playing, playing, playing on, AD Some good old country songs CGAD When I heard his fiddle play, hey-heeey, CGAD That fiddle when he’d play, some good old country songs. CG (When my father’s fiddle played) AD Awe, some country songs, CG (When my father’s fiddle played) GAD How I just love those good old country songs. CGA (When my father’s fiddle play-aaaed) DCG (When my father’s fiddle played) FADE OUT
