Gods Own Yodeler

Capo 2 Intro: Am G C Up at Henry's Bar and Grill F On the north side of town G I saw a man reach up to heaven C And pull a song on down To a smoke filled room of misfits F Young and old and great and small G And with the laughing eyes of the Buddha C ~ ~ He shared it with us all [Refrão] Am And every soul in that roadhouse F Felt the power of his song D Through life's joys and sorrows G He brought us together as one Am They called him 'God's own yodeler' F 'The Pavarotti of the plains' G There's no bigger voice in Texas C Don Walser was his name He was raised out in La Mesa F Just a boy when his mamma died G With daddy at the mill all night C In that empty house he cried He'd climb up in the oak tree F To sing his broken heart G The neighbours gathered in the yard C ~ ~ Listening in the dark [Refrão] Am Singing songs about West Texas F Cowboys and old John Deeres D Rodeos and drive-ins G And the thrill of teenage years Am They called him 'God's own yodeler' F 'The Pavarotti of the plains' G There's no bigger voice in Texas C Don Walser was his name INTERLUDE: Am C Yodelayeeoooooo G C Yodelayeeoooooo Instrumental: C F G C ~ ~ Am F D G Am F G C From the honky-tonks and dance halls F To the Grand Ole Opery G Don Walser brought a smile C To every fan who came to see Now it's oxygen and wheelchairs F And trips to the docs in town G The stays kept getting longer C ~ ~ He knew he was glory bound [Refrão] Am My friend, your work is done here F And I'd say you did it well D Your voice rings down from heaven G All the way to the Devil himself Am And now you're god's own yodeler F High above the Texas plains G We miss you here in Austin C With love we speak you name OUTRO: Am C Yodelayeeoooooo F C Yodelayeeoooooo Am C Yodelayeeoooooo G C F C C Yodelayeeooooooooooo yip
