[Am] [E] We're gonna do a song right now, especially [Am] for Brian.
[N] Now this song I haven't sung since 1963 when I was working for Bill Monroe.
Of course, we did it every night.
So it's been good practice, but it's been since 63 that I sang this song.
I didn't expect anything.
[A] And it's [F#] one about that he wrote about [B] his Uncle Penn Vandiver and it's entitled Uncle Penn.

[D] Late in the [F#m] evening, about [A] sundown, high on a hill, in the burb of town, Uncle Penn played [N] a fiddle, Lordy, how it rang, you could hear it talk, you could [C#] hear it sing.
