Verse 1
I (D major) dreamed (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
I was (F sharp major)
there in (G major) a hillbilly (D major) heaven,
oh what a (A major) beautiful sight. (D major)
Last night I dreamed I went to hill (F sharp minor) billy heaven,
and you know (G major) who greeted
me at the gate? (D major)
The old cowboy philosopher himself,
(A major) Will Rogers.
He said (D major) to me, he said, Tex,
the boss of the riders up here
is kind of asking me to show
you around. (F sharp minor)
Right over yonder is (G major) a couple
of your old compadres.
(D major) My, was I glad to see them,
(A major) Harsin Robertson
and the (D major) Mississippi Blue Yodeler,
Jimmy Rogers.
I dreamed I was (F sharp major) there
In (F sharp minor) a (G major) hillbilly hell
(D major) Oh, what a (A major) beautiful sight (D major)
He introduced me to Wiley Post
And (F sharp minor) he showed (F sharp major) me the Hall of (G major) Fame
with all the gold guitars
(D major) and fiddles a -hangin' on the wall
Then he said, text up over this (A major) way
before your friends know you (D major) won't see
That they're waitin' for you
And there they were,
standin' side (F sharp minor) for side and smilin' (G major)
Hank Williams (D major) and Johnny Horton
Patsy Cline,
Cowboy Copus (A major) and Hawkshaw Hawkins (D major)
I met all the (F sharp major) stars in (F sharp minor) (G major) Hillbilly Head
(D major) Oh, what a (A major) beautiful sight (D major)
Then I asked him who else
(F sharp minor) he expected
(F sharp major) within the next, (G major) oh, say,
a hundred years. (D major)
He handed me a large book
covered with stardust.
(A major) Will Rogers called (D major) it The Big Talent.
In it were many names,
and each name was branded (A major) in (D major) pure gold.
I began to read some of them
as I turned the pages.
Red Foley, Ernie Stubb,
Gene Autry,
Roy Acuff, Eddie Arnold, Ten (A major) nessee (D major) Ernie,
(A major) Andy (D major) Griffith, Roy Rogers,
Tex Ritter, Tex Ritter,
that's when I woke up,
and I'm (D major) sorry I did because I (D major) dreamed
I was (F sharp minor) there (F sharp major) in a (G major) hill, Billy (D major) Hill,
oh what a beautiful (A major) sight.
(A major) (D major)
