Night Hank Came To Town Ukulele tab

	  E Harry Truman was our presi-{A} dent 
A B7 coke an burger cost you thirty E cents 
I was still in love with Mavis A Brown 
E On the night Hank B7 Williams came to E town. 
 
E "I Love Lucy" debuted on Tee A Vee 
That was B7 one big event we didn't E see 
'Cause no one stayed at home for miles a-{A} round 
It E was the night Hank B7 Williams came to E town. 
 
A Mama ironed my shirt and daddy E let me take the truck 
I F# drove on out to Grapevine and B7 picked old Mavis up 
We E hit that county line for one quick A round 
E On the night HANK B7 WILLIAMS came to E town. 
  
E A thousand people sweltered in the A gym 
Then I B7 heard someone whisper; "Hey, that's E him" 
That's when the crowd let out this deafening A sound 
It E was the night Hank B7 Williams came to E town. 
 
CHANGE TO G: 
G On and on he sang into the C night 
'Jamba-{D7} laya', 'Cheatin' heart', 'I saw the G light' 
How'd they get Miss Audrey in that C gown 
G On the night Hank D7 Williams came to C town. 
 
C Mavis had her picture made with G Hank outside his car 
She A said; "He sure is humble for a D7 Grand Ole Opry Star." 
Ma-{G} vis said: "Why don't we hang a-{C} round 
It ain't G often that Hank D7 Williams comes to G town." 
 
While C Hank signed his autograph on G (*Beaulah Rice's) fan 
Ma-{A} vis got acquainted with the D7 Driftin' Cowboys Band 
The G effect on all our lives was quite pro-{C} ound ...{P} 
On the night Hank Williams came to town.
