Verse 1:

          G 
Won't you please stop nagging me about that brand new dress? 
C 
   You know, I've worked and done my best 
D 
Been saving my money for all these years 
         G 
And when I get to Nashville, there'll be no more tears 
       C 
Eating high on the hog 
D 
   Putting on the dog 
G 
Buying everything in the new catalog 

Verse 2:

    G 
You know, all my life, I've picked and strummed 
C 
   Why, there ain't a tune that I can't hum 
D 
   And folks all said from near and far 
      G 
That, someday, I'd be an Opry star 
             C 
That's how I got you, honey 
           D 
Why, you know'd I'd be in the money 
             G 
Never was no flies on you, gal 

Verse 3:

          G 
And you remember that time at the county seat 
       C 
When I shook hands with Ernest Tubb? 
    D 
And he liked that song I sung him too 
          G 
'cause he asked me to send him a dub 
                  C 
And he called me 'son'. Remember that? 'Son'! 
     D 
Just like he knowed me all his life 
           G 
That's my kind of folks 

Verse 4:

        G 
Why, you just look at the Nashville telephone book 
         C 
They got publishers from A to Z 
D 
Darn near fills up one of them Yeller Pages 
    G 
And all of 'em are waiting just for me 
               C 
But they won't have to quarrel 
             D 
I got enough songs for 'em all 
              G 
And writing more every day too 

Verse 5:

      G 
??? Hush up, little Roy Acuff cover I just know ??? 
          C 
Can't you hear your Daddy's a-talking? 
D 
Wait 'til you hear this new one, hon 
              G 
I wrote while I was out a-walking 
        G 
Why, if that ain't just like a woman, she's fast asleep 
C 
While I'm a-working, she's a-dreaming 
D                                                G 
I'd have probably got to Nashville a long time ago 
         G 
If she'd help me with my scheming 
          C 
She never did have no ambition 
     D 
Just sits around a-wishing 
              G 
Wearing that funny little smile 

Verse 6:

      G 
Well, you just keep on dreaming, then 
                  C 
Someday, honey, those dreams are gonna all come true 
      D 
Those things I promised when we was courting 
       G 
In the moon, all tired and blue 
          C 
You'll be proud of me 
     D                             G 
When I get to Nashville, Tennessee
