Chords for Lorerrta Lynn Tribute Coal Miners Daughter ACM Girls Night Out [HD]_(360p).mp4

[A] _ _ _ [N] Take it from me, you cannot find a female country performer, _ obviously including me,
who doesn't idolize our next honoree.
None of us would be doing what we do if she hadn't done it first.
_ _ _ Although she couldn't be with us tonight because of recent knee surgery, we recognize her amazing
50-year career and for being the Academy's only female artist of the decade.
There are so many reasons why we adore her, as does [E] the whole world.
[Cm] _
Like the song says, [F] she was born a coal miner's daughter [C] in Butcher Hollow, Kentucky.
She sang at church and did local concerts, but that all stopped when she married at age [G] 13.
She spent the [Am] next decade raising six [N] children and was just 24 when her husband, Do, encouraged her to [C] sing again.
Her first single, I'm a Honky Tonk Girl, [F] was a top 20 hit and led to her signing with a [C] major label.
She's had [F] over 75 [Db] hits since then, songs that have [Eb] become cultural milestones.
Loretta [Ab] stood up for women and wasn't shy about [Eb] writing songs from her own strong point of view.
That's just one of the [Ab] reasons she's had 16 number one hits, including [Eb] the autobiographical [B] Coal Miner's Daughter.
[E] _
_ _ _ In her stellar 50-year career, she's gone from poverty to [A] superstardom, earning 52 [E] top 10 hits and 16 Academy of Country Music [B] Awards.
It's no wonder [E] the first lady of country music is Loretta Lynn.
_ _ [N] _ _
_ Ladies _ _ and gentlemen, from Nashville, here is Loretta Lynn.
_ I'd like to say hello to everyone at the MGM Grand, and I wish I could be with you tonight,
but the doctor that operated on my knee said no and hell no I wasn't coming.
So I'm here at home tonight, and I love every one of these ladies that are going to be honored tonight, and I wish I was with you there.
So girls, I hear you're going to do a song that's very special to me, and that's Coal Miner's Daughter.
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ I [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ was [G] born _ _ [D] a miner's daughter _
_ _ _ In a cabin [E] on a hill in [A] Portugal _ _
We _ [D] were poor, we had nothing _ [G] _ _ that he [D] might share of
He shoveled coal [A] to make a poor [D] man's daughter _ _
_ _ _ My daddy worked [G] all night in a [D] miller coal _ mine
_ _ _ All day long [E] in a field of [A] hoeing corn
Like _ _ _ _ [D] _ the babies at night, _ [G] read the Bible by the coal [D] light
And everything was start [A] all over come break [D] of morning _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] Raised _ _ [Ab] eight kids on a [Eb] miner's bag _
I _ _ mixed grubbite clothes [F] on a _ washboard [Bb] every day _
Well _ [Eb] I've seen her fingers bleed to [Ab] complain there was [Eb] no need
_ She'd smile in [Bb] mommy's _ understanding [Eb] _ _ way
_ _ _ In the summertime [Ab] we didn't have shoes [Eb] to wear _ _
_ _ But in the _ wintertime [F] we'd all get a brand [Bb] new pair _ _
_ From [Eb] a male or a camel
_ _ [Ab] Money made from selling [Eb] my heart
_ Daddy always [Bb] managed to find the money [Eb] somewhere _ _
[B] I [A] _ [B] [E] love to be [A] a coal [E] miner's daughter _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ We [B] drew water, _ _ _ _ [E] well the water _ _ _ _ _ [A] we'd sleep
We [E] worked hard, _ _ _ never thought [B] of leaving
_ [E] Butcher Holland, _ _ _ _ _ well life _ _
[A] changed since way [E] back then _ _
_ _ _ And it's so good [Gb] to be back home [B] _ again _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ Nothing [A] lives here _
[E] anymore
Except the memories [Dbm]
[B] of a coal [E] miner's daughter _ _
