 D A E A A 
 
A Nobody saw them running from 16th Ave-{D}-nue 
They never found the A fingerprints or the weapon that was E used 
But some-{A}-one killed country music, cut out its heart and D soul 
They got away with A murder E Down on music A row 
 
The almight dollar {1} and the lust for worldwide fame {2} 
Slowly killed tradition {3} and for that, someone should hang {4}    
They all say "Not Guilty!"  {5} but the evidence will show 
That murder was committed down on music row 
 
Chorus 
For the D steel guitars no longer cry and the A fiddles barely play 
But B7 drums and rock 'n' roll guitars are E mixed up in your face 
A Ol'  Hank wouldn't have a chance on today's D radio 
Since they committed A murder E down on music A row 
 
D A E A A 
 
They thought no one would miss it once it was dead and gone 
They said no one would buy them ol' drinkin' and cheatin' songs   
Well there ain't no justice in it and the hard facts are cold 
Murder's been committed down on music row 
 
Chorus  
For the steel guitars no longer cry and you can't hear fiddles play 
With drums and rock 'n' roll guitars mixed right up in your face 
Why the Hag wouldn't have a chance {9} on today's radio {10} 
Since they committed murder {11} down on music row {12} 
 
Why they A even tell the Possum to pack up and go back D home 
There's been an awful A murder E Down on music A row
