There's a hound dog running all alone through the piney woods 
          F                             C 
Lord, his howling tears the soul out of me

There's a jay bird calling out a funeral dirge 
   F             C 
In ancient harmony

Barb'ry Allen rolled over in a grave all morning

Hey, god's gonna burn down Nashville, boys

You got twenty-twenty vision, but you're walking 'round blind 
              G    C 
You Grand Ole Opry fools 
                     F                  C 
With your hypocritic judgments and your self-righteous snobbery

Your goddamned false hearted rule

Boys who sang with tongues on fire

So god's gonna burn down your Grand Ole Opry 
         F                             C 
Hear the screams of the hypocrites and liars

They feel safer now that Jimmy has expired

Don't look back, Nashville's burning down
