Intro 1
(G major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
Verse 1
All (G major)
(C major) the (G major) rednecks are drawing
their lines down in East Tennessee (A minor)
Their (D major) cannons are primed
and they're fit to be tied,
I (E minor) be (G major) lieve (C major) (G major)
And the man in the gray flannel suit
does not walk on the (A minor) street
Say, (D major) does anyone know
what became of the old Opry? (G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) Now (G major) the cowboys have taken an axe
to the old hanging (A minor) tree
They've (D major) traded their guns for a guitar
and two bags (G major) of weed (C major) (G major)
And they'll swear in a slow Texas draw,
all the killin' is (A minor) done
I be (D major) lieve them by God,
but I'm keeping my back
to (G major) the sun
Tomorrow is (A minor) out of sight (D major)
Yesterday's (G major) dead and gone
(E minor) You never knew (A minor) how right you (A major) were
the night you (D major) wrote that song
Well, the (G major) truck -driving man
makes his stops
where the coffee is (A minor) free
El (D major) Paso this morning,
tonight it'll be Tenness (G major) ee (C major) (G major)
(E minor) An (C major) d he (G major) spends all his miles
on the dials of a poppin' (A minor) CB
Say, (D major) anyone know
what became of old Ralph
Emery? (G major)
Tomorrow is (A minor) out of sight, (D major)
yesterday's (G major) dead and gone
You (E minor) never knew (A minor) how right you (A major) were
the night you (D major) wrote that song (C major) (B minor)
(A minor) (G major) (C major) (G major) (A minor) (D major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) Yesterday's newspaper forecasts
no rain for (A minor) today
Oh, (D major) but yesterday's news is old news,
now the skies are all (G major) grey (C major)
(G major) But (C major) the (G major) East Texas hills are alive
with its children in (A minor) the spring
Say, (D major) does anyone know
what became of my sweet
An (G major) gelina?
Tomorrow is (A minor) out of sight (D major)
Yesterday's (G major) dead and gone
(E minor) You never knew (A minor) how right you (A major) were
the night you (D major) wrote that song (C major) (B minor)
(A minor) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
