[Intro]
C G D G
Note can play A7 and D7 in place of A and D
G                                     C
Nobody saw him runnin' from 16th aven-ue
                     G                                  D
They never found a fingerprint or the weapon that was used.
          G                                               C
But some-one killed country music cut out it's heart and soul
                     G     D              G
They got away with murder down on music row
G                                                 C
The all mighty dollar and the lust for world wide fame
                    G                                 D
Slowly killed tra-dition and for that someone should hang
G                                                 C
They all say "not guilty" But the evidence will show
                   G        D            G
That murder was committed down on music row
C                                G
For the steel guitars no longer cry and fiddles barely play
      A                                 D
But drums and rock'n'roll guitars are mixed  up in your face
G                                                  C
Ol' Hank wouldn't have a chance     on today's radi-o
                     G      D            G
Since they committed murder down on music row
G                                                       C
They thought no one would miss it once it was dead and gone
                          G                                  D
They shought no one would buy them old drinkin' and cheatin' songs
      G                                         C
There ain't no justice in and the hard facts are cold
                  G       D             G
Murder's been committed down on music row
C                                           G
For the steel guitars no longer cry and you can't hear fiddles  play
      A                                 D
With drums and rock'n'roll guitars are mixed  up in your face
       G                                          C
Why the Hag wouldn't have a chance  on today's radi-o
                       G      D            G
Since they committed murder down on music row
             G                                           C
Why they'd even tell the 'possum to pack up and go back home
                        G      D            G
There's been an awful murder down on music row
