Murder On Music Row

• D

Intro: (D)  (A)  (E)  (A) 
 
No(A)body saw them running from 16th Aven(D)ue 
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 (A) almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide (D) fame  
Slowly killed trad(A)ition and for that, someone should (E) hang   
Oh, (A) they all say "Not Guilty!", but the evidence will (D) show 
That murder was com(A)mitted (E) down on music (A) row 
 
 	 For the (D) steel guitars no longer cry and (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 radi(D)o 
 	 Since they committed (A) murder (E) down on music (A) row 
 
Fiddle Solo 
 
They (A) thought no one would miss it once it was dead and (D) gone 
They said no one would (A) buy them ol' drinkin' and cheatin' (E) songs   
Well there (A) ain't no justice in it, and the hard facts are (D) cold 
Murder's been com(A)mitted (E) down on music (A) row 
 
 	 For the (D) steel guitars no longer cry and (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 radi(D)o 
 	 Since they committed (A) murder (E) down on music (A) row 
 
Why they'd (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
