Chords for Willie Nelson & Merle Haggard - Missing Ol' Johnny Cash [HQ]

_ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ [Em] _ _
Now [A] Johnny Cash in the Tennessee too, [D] seemed to know just what to do.
He invented [A] the sound that hooked you and me,
[Em] Added one and made Tennessee three.
[A] A man in black with long and lean,
Hit [D] the billboard charts with the teenage queen,
Did a television show, the best we'd [E] seen,
That Chicka-Boon-Rock really made us flash,
That's an old [A] Johnny Cash.
_ _ [Bb] _ _
_ Now Johnny Cash was a friend of mine,
Knew [Eb] him well for a mighty long time,
[Bb] Shared the stage, a mini-show,
[Cm] Broke my heart to see him [Bb] go,
Cash had the fire of a thousand men,
[Eb] Love and life was his greatest sin,
[Bb] Treated his fans like the next of kin,
[F] Rapping the bit, talking trash,
That's an [Bb] old Johnny Cash.
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ Well Johnny Cash wore black a part,
[Eb] Then he fell into that ring of fire,
[Bb] He came up swinging like a boy in a suit,
[F] He married June Carter and he fired stew,
[Bb] He wrote his songs from deep within,
[Eb] He hit the stage with a crooked [Bb] grin,
He and I were both highwaymen,
[F] And that record became a smash,
Well that's [G] an old [Bb] Johnny Cash.
_ _ [B] _
_ _ Johnny Cash never walked no line,
[E] Johnny Cash never did no [B] time,
But when he sang a force and prison [Gb] blues,
He didn't do good and well, he paid it [B] due,
True he always dressed in [E] black,
But he loved the folks and they loved him back,
[B] He carried his pills in a brown paper sack,
[Gb] Well I don't care if they found his stash,
That's an [B] old Johnny Cash. _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ Is it really true that him and Roy Nichols,
Rose Maddox and people roasted hot dogs
In the back of a [Em] limousine with ice cream sticks?
I don't know, I said they set the curtains on fire
In the _ English hotel room just to warm their hands.
_ Well, Willie do you know anything about Cash?
Oh yeah, I know a lot of things about Cash,
I'm not sure I should talk about it,
But I checked with [A] John, asked him if he's okay,
And he said he didn't give a shit.
One time he took a casket up to his hotel room,
And got into it and called room service,
I thought that was pretty funny.
Now Cash had the fire of a thousand men,
[D] Loving life was his greatest sin,
[A] Treated his friends like the next kin,
[E] Rattling a bit, talking trash,
That's an [A] old Johnny Cash. _ _ _ _
