Tuning: E A D G B E

[Verse]

^DWell we loaded up the van ^GPicked up the ^Dband

Tried to put some smiles on so

^AThings wouldn't seem so bad ^DHe never got all the accolades ^GHe never had the ^Dfame

But hearing country music now, won't

^AEver be the ^Dsame [Chorus] ^GSo call all the honky tonks ^DTell them things just changed ^AHave them turn the lights down low ^DMake 'em clear the stage ^GCan't bear to hear Footlights now ^DOr On the Road Again ^ASo I'll just listen to my memories of The Bass Playing ^DMan

[Verse]

^DWhen we got to Cincinnati ^GHis friends all gathered '^Dround

Telling stories 'bout the good ol' days

^GWhen he was still ^Daround ^DHe laid down the rhythm ^GHe could take you klow he could ^Dget you high

And when the band was on and he sang his song

Man that bar would come ^Dalive [Chorus] ^GSo call all the honky tonks ^DTell them things just changed ^AHave them turn the lights down low ^DMake 'em clear the stage ^GCan't bear to hear Folsom now ^DOr On the Road Again ^ASo I'll just listen to my memories of The Bass Playing ^DMan

[Bridge]

^DI wish I knew when I last saw him It would ^Gbe our last g^Doodbye ^DBut his songs live on in so many hearts The^A Man will never ^Ddie

[Chorus]

^GSo call all the honky tonks ^DTell them things just changed ^AHave them turn the lights down low ^DMake 'em clear the stage ^GCan't bear to hear Footlights now ^DOr On the Road Again ^ASo I'll just listen to my memories of The Bass Playing ^DMan ^AI'll just listen to my memories of The Bass Playing ^DMan
