Keith Whitley a voice still rings true Chords

[B] _ _ _ [F] Back _ _ _ _ _ in [Dm] the mountains [Bb] of eastern Kentucky, [F] a young boy [Dm] grew up [C] a dream _ _ _ [F] of playing [Dm] the obree.
[Bb] Like all of his heroes, [F] by the time that [Dm] he _ [C] was a walk he [F] could say, _ _ _ blessed with [Dm] the
voice of [Bb] a wild man.
Songbird, [F] quick with [Dm] a kind word [C] and a smile.
_ _ [Am] _ [C]
[F] His songs of [Dm] loud heartache, [Bb] hard living and true love [F] came right from [Dm] the pages [C] of life's [F] lonely miles.
_ [Dm] In [C] his voice rang truth [Bb] as his legend grew.
[F] He used a stone [Dm] to shine like [C] a star. _
_ [Am] _ [C] But he never forgot [G] _ [F] [Bb] who that he was [F] or the friends that [Dm] he made with [C] [F] his [C] old [F] guitar.

[F] He [Dm] wasn't a stranger [Bb] to the rain or its danger. _
[F] Found on [Dm] the highways [C] of life. _ _
[F] Too soon it [Dm] was over, [Bb] the road it had ended. _

_ _ Somewhere in [Dm] the mountains [Bb] of eastern Kentucky, [F] a young boy [Dm] is dreaming _ [C] _ _ _

[Dm] the obree.
[Bb] Like his fallen hero, who's [F] gone [Dm] on to sing with [C] the angels [F] on high.

[C] And the voice still rings true [Bb] from the man that we knew.
[F] Oh, just hear him [Dm] speak any [C] number of shades.
_ _ _ [Am]
[C] And the new star shines [G] bright [F] in [Bb] the heavens to the night.
[F] Now that [Dm] he's part of [C] that great _ angel _ [F] band. _ _ _
