C C
We were tunin' up to play a gig, just another one night stand
G
I looked over my guitar and there stood an old man
C C7
His cowboy clothes were frayed and worn and his boots were far from new
C G
He said I'd like to sit in with your band, I'm a country singer too
C
Well, we just had a big laugh
C
And when I looked back at the old man there was a tear in his eye
G
I told the band to cool it, I didn't wanna see him cry
C C7
He reached down and he took my guitar with a determined look on his face
C G
But as he started to play and sing a look of sadness took its place
C C7 F
He said I've sang my songs from Maine to California
C G
Seen the world through the window of a car
C F
I never saved a dime back when I made it, I always thought someday I'd be a
star
C7 F C
But now my voice is cracked and no one wants me, my wife gave up on me years
G
ago
C C7 F C G
It's been so long my kids don't even know me pickin' and singin' is the only
C
life I know
And then he said
F C
I wonder if God likes country music, will there be a place up there to sing
G
my songs
C C7 F C
Will he make my fingers nimble like they used to be
G C
So I can play the chords and sing along
C C
I just stood there, none of us really knew what to say
C C
He took my guitar and he put it down ever so gently
C C
And then as he started to turn and leave
C C
The band stood up and applauded and I can still hear his words today, he said
C C
I wonder if God likes country music...
