Chet Atkins "I'll Say She Does" (part 2) chords
Start Jamming...
You know, that happens.
It's so great to watch musicians watch other musicians.
You had them hanging on every note over there, the guys.
Well, it's a little different, you know.
I brought some of that finger-picking Nashville music out here.
You do it all right.
This new album, let me ask you about it.
It's called CGP.
Is that some secret code here?
What is that?
That's a degree I gave myself.
You know, I'm a dropout.
What I really wanted was a Ph.D. from Vanderbilt.
I gave myself a CGP, which is a certified guitar player.
You want to present that degree?
Oh, yeah.
For my friends.
You know, there's a lot been going on in the news the last couple of years
about various ministries that have gotten in trouble with funds and all that.
You did a song a while ago that's pretty apropos today.
Do you know who I'm talking about?
Yeah, I was talking to the girl about that, Would Jesus Wear a Rolex?
I wrote that with Margaret Archer, and it was a hit by Ray Stevens.
And I had a new opening that I wrote after Jimmy Swigert got in trouble,
but I don't like to kick a man when he's down, so I don't know if I want to repeat that.
Well, it's up to you.
We wrote a new opening.
I got up this morning and looked at my television screen there,
and Living Color was a very familiar scene.
Another TV preacher admitting he had done wrong.
I scratched my head and wondered, should I write another song?
Would he wear a Rolex?
Would he wear a Swatch?
Would he participate, or would he rather watch?
I wrote that song.
I was thinking I'd get Ray Stevens to do a number two version,
and he said no, so I didn't write any more.
Now, we have hot dogs, we have cake, and also we can fix you some rabbit, if you'd like.
Now, Chet, I'm sure you know Dan, because you two worked together.
Have you ever seen this former distinguished anchorman?
I kept thinking if Irving could see him now.
Irving Law, his former boss.
He'd love it.
[G] I think you're out of news for good, Dan.
I hope they didn't just tune in and [N] see me sitting here like this.
I use the expression the Nashville sound,
and I don't even know that I know what I mean when I say that.
I lived there for years, and there's some great music coming out of it.
Are you able to put a definition or a handle on it, on what it is?
No, it evolved, though, because Owen Bradley and myself,
we were just trying to keep our job, trying to keep from getting fired.
And the way you do that is surprise the friends and neighbors with every record you put out.
And in doing that, you come up with different things.
And if there's a Nashville sound, it's probably the rattle of money or something.
Kind of an amalgam, I guess.
When you were signing people to RCA, who were some of the people you signed to that label?
Oh, uh
Drop some names.
Dolly Parton and Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson, Jerry Reed, Charlie Pride.
People like that.
Yeah, not a bad little list.
Had a lot of good luck.
Yeah, well, maybe a little more than that.
Anyway, I don't know how you do it.
You just keep sounding better and better.
It's great having you here.
Thank you.
We'll take a break.
We'll be right back.
