Verse: 
         D    A          G               D 
Country music   was the backbone of his life 
               A 
Any song you choose it,  
           G            D 
Heâ??d play anything you liked. 
            A 
Most every evening,  
           G              A 
You could find me by his side. 
           Bm                  Em         A 
Where Iâ??d lend the third part harmony to mom and dadâ??s duets. 
       Bm             Em                 A 
Unill lullabies hung from my eyes and I wandered off to bed. 

  

    D             C              G       A  
And I can see my mother in this country home 
         D              C               G 
I got a sister and two brothers all my own 
        D             C          G        A 
And believe me family unity was ever so strong 
         D                C      G 
When I heard my fatherâ??s fiddle play,  
      A                D 
Some good old country songs. 
                   C      G 
(When my fatherâ??s fiddle played)  
      A                D 
Some good old country songs. 
                   C      G 
(When my fatherâ??s fiddle played) 
 

  

Verse: 
         D        A                 G               D 
Country neighbors,   they say that heâ??s the best around  
               A 
To play their favorites 
          G                D                     A 
At every Friday night hoe-down, and late in the evening 
          G                  A 
With the neighbors homeward bound 
     Bm               Em           A 
His closings were as customary as turning out the lights 
   Bm             Em        A 
A quarter for my pocket, a love song for his wife. 


    D             C              G       A  
And I can see my mother in this country home 
         D              C               G 
I got a sister and two brothers all my own 
        D             C          G        A 
And believe me family unity was ever so strong 
         D                C      G 
When I heard my fatherâ??s fiddle play,  
      A                D 
Some good old country songs. 
                   C      G 
(When my fatherâ??s fiddle played)  
               A                D 
Some of those good old country songs.

BREAK: 
A        Bm                     F#m 
Ah, but where oh where has the time gone? 
            G             A              Bm 
Itâ??s been years since my ears have been played upon. 
                              A            G 
I heard the fiddler lost his tune in some bar room 
         A                                    Bm   
And his familyâ??s to another town, it must be lonesome 
        Em                A 
Wishing all the lost and somehow find you now 

  
Chorus: 
    D                C         G         A 
And I can see my mother, she lives all alone 
         D               C                        G 
I got a sister and two brothers but theyâ??re all grown 
        D             C         G         A 
And believe me family unity was ever so strong 
         D                C      G         A                D

                   C                 G 
When I heard him, playing, playing, playing on,  
      A                 D 
Some good old country songs 
                  C      G   A       D 
When I heard his fiddle play,  hey-heeey, 
      C                G          A                D 
That fiddle when heâ??d play, some good old country songs.
