Chords for Kitty Wells and Johnny Wright at the Grand Ole Opry

Doing fine.
Here's Jeannie Seely. _ _
[Fm] Here's Jeannie Seely on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. _
Kind of an imaginable different way to introduce her,
but I think the best way is to just simply say
the original and still reigning queen of country music,
_ undisputedly.
And a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame,
would you welcome please Miss Kitty Wells. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ As I sit here [A] tonight, the [D] jukebox playing _ _ _ _
[E] The tune about the _ wild side [A] of _ life
_ As I listen to the words you are [D] _ saying
_ _ It brings [E] memories when I [E] was a [A] trusting wife
_ It _ wasn't God who made the honky [D]-tonk _ angels
_ _ As [E] you said in the words of [A] your _ songs
_ Too many _ times married men think they're [D] still _ single
_ _ That [E] has taught many a good girl to [A] go _ around _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[G#] _ [A] Shame that all the blame is [D] on us women
_ _ _ It's [E] not true that only men [A] feel the same
_ _ From the start most every heart that's [D] ever _ broken _ _ _
[E] Was because there always was a [A] man to blame
_ [E] It [A] wasn't God who _ [A] made the honky [D]-tonk angels
_ _ As [E] you said in [E] the words of [A] your _ songs
_ Too many _ times married men think they're [D] still single
_ _ That [E] has taught many a good girl to go around
_ _ _ _ [A] _
_ Thank you, thank you so much.
[B] Miss Kitty, _ _ _ [E] _
you sound so good.
_ _ We [N] spent quite a bit of time this past week together.
We flew out to Arizona, but you are celebrating
a wonderful anniversary tonight.
You want to tell us about it?
Yes, this is our 60th wedding anniversary.
Johnny and I got married in 1937, so _ he's here with me tonight.
And I think they're going to get him out here. Hi, Terry.
You know what?
It just [Em] occurred to me she found 60 years ago
what the rest of us have been looking for.
She really did find Mr.
Right.
Mr.
Johnny Right, as a matter of fact.
And also _ their [A] son, a [B] star in his own right, Bobby Wright's with them tonight.
[E] _ _ Happy anniversary to you. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] _ Can I use this mic?
[C#] And you have that.
[B] _ _ [E] Well, hello, everybody.
We're ready to go with the song here our son wrote for us.
We recorded this song about a year ago, and it's really doing good.
And it's about our 60th anniversary title.
After 60 years together, I guess they'll [G] stick together.
[C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Cause we stuck together through the [F] lean and the lean years
[C] The lean and hungry years were filled [G] with strife
_ _ [C] Now we're still [C] together in the [F] green, green years
[C] And we'll stick together [G] for the rest of [C] our lives
_ _ _ I've seen love come and go [F] just like the winter snow
[C] I saw a boy break his darlin' [G] heart
_ _ [C] But his love wasn't true like [F] my love is for you, [C] darling
I'll [G] never break your heart
_ _ _ Cause we stuck together through [F] the lean and the lean years
[C] The lean and hungry years were filled [G] with strife
_ _ Now [C] we're still together _ _ [F] in the green, [D] green years
[C] And we'll stick together for the [G] rest of our [C] lives _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ First it was so hard [F] for us to make a start
[C] But we kept on playing [G] every day
_ _ _ [C] Your kisses were so sweet [F] and you were nice to [Am] me, darling
You [G] swept me [C] off my feet
_ _ Cause we stuck together through [F] the lean and the lean years
The [C] lean and hungry years were filled with [G] strife
_ [Em] _
_ [C] Now we're still [C] together _
[F] in the green, green years
And we'll [C] stick together for the [G] rest of our [Am] lives
_ [C] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Aren't they just wonderful?
Look at them.
_ 60 years.
Miss Kitty, I just have to ask you.
All of us, you know, all of us have learned a lot about the music business from you
And I think some of us could probably learn quite a bit about marriage
You want to tell us what your secret is to making it work for 60 years
_ Well, just let them have their way
_ [F#] _
I don't think that was [G] the answer I wanted
What about you, girl?
[N] No, we really work together
It's no, really no secret
And we've always tried to get along
And we were brought up if you got married, it was for a lifetime
And so that's what we've made
Thank you
And I have to say that _ anytime that I have been around you
It has been so obvious that y'all are just such good friends
We still are good friends
And I love her, love the morning
On our 30th, our 60th anniversary, I woke up and I said,
You look just as well as you did when we married in 1937
I can't tell a bit of difference in you
And she slapped me _ _ _
_ _ _ Well, we love you and we're so happy you're here tonight Happy anniversary
And come back to see us at the Grand Ole Opry real soon, would you? _ _ _
[G] Mr.
and Mrs.
Wright, what more can you say?
We'll be right [E] back after this word from our sponsor
[N] _ _ _
