The Death of Jimmy Martin by Tom Russell Guitar Chords


By Tom Russell
3/17/2010

There’s a hound dog running all alone through the piney woods
Lord his howlin’ tears the soul out of me
There’s a jay bird calling up a funeral dirge
In ancient harmony
Barb’ry Allen rolled over in a grave all morning
With roses growing out of her head
Hey, God’s gonna burn down Nashville, boys
Cause Jimmy Martin’s dead
Ah, the great Jimmy Martin’s gone dead

You got twenty twenty vision but you’re walkin’ ’round blind
You Grand Ole Opry fools
With your hypocritic judgments and your self righteous snobbery
Your God Damned false hearted rule
You scorned Hank Williams, you shunned Jimmy Martin,
Boys who sang with tongues of fire.
So god’s gonna burn down your Grand Ole Opry
Hear the screams of the hypocrites and liars
They feel safer now that Jimmy has expired

Chorus:
Run, Pete, run, your master’s callin’ you,
He’s waiting on up ahead
Don’t look back, Nashville’s burnin’ down
Jimmy Martin’s dead
Oh, The great Jimmy Martin’s gone dead

Yeah, don’t call me no country singer
Those are poison words to me
‘Cause I ain’t heard a good country song
Since 1973
The King of Bluegrass has died for your sins
The We of Babylon is sleepin’ in your bed
So God’s gonna burn down Nashville tonight, boys,
Cause Jimmy Martin’s dead
The great Jimmy Martin’s gone dead

Chorus

There’s a hound dog runnin’ all alone through the piney woods
The howling tears the soul out of me
