SONG'S IN NASHVILLE (Won't Be Long Now) By: Skeet Fitzgerald 5/2022
D Am
Song's in Nashville-won't be long now.
G D
They'll be hearing me back in...my home town
D Am
Maybe they'll recognize themselves in the song
G (GF#E) Em D
Now that it's in Nashville-It won't be long.
D Am
Songs in Nashville-get picked up fast
G D
Better listen quick now, 'cause they don't last
D Am
Someone said they really liked that song
G (GF#E) Em D
At least they did until the next one-came along
D Am
Song's in Nashville-been there six months
G D
Everybody's got it now-haven't heard back once
D Am
Maybe they're all busy-just haven't got the time
G (GF#E) Em D
Somewhere in Nashville-there's a song of mine
(CHORUS)
Bb A
Tried San Francisco-and Los Angeleeze
Bb A
Even tried Las Vegas-that brought me to my knees
G A
My friend said son you need to go to Tennessee
G A (A-Bb-G-A) 2x
Take your song to Nashville-it's almost guaranteed
D Am
Song's in Nashville-won't be long now
G D
Soon they'll be hearing me back in-my home town
D Am
Maybe they'll recognize themselves in the song
G (GF#E) Em D
Now that it's in Nashville-it won't be long
Em D
Now that it's in Nashville-it won't be long
