Buttermilk John
Vince Gill
[Intro] Dsus2 [Verse 1] A Dsus2 A Buttermilk John played the steel guitar It made a mournful sound From the cotton fields of Arkansas To the streets of that Nashville town [Chorus] Oh John oh John play all night long Play ’til my tears run dry Oh John oh John play one last song Before you take that final ride [Verse 2] A Dsus2 A Buttermilk John sure loved Miss Jean She never left his side Was the sweetest love I’ve ever seen The Holy Bible was their guide [Chorus] Oh John oh John play all night long Play ’til my tears run dry Oh John oh John play one last song Before you take that final ride [Solo] [Verse 3] A Dsus2 A Now Buttermilk John was a godly man I loved him like a son Now he’s gone on to the Glory Land With Jesus he he will run [Chorus] Oh John oh John play all night long Play ’til my tears run dry Oh John oh John play one last song Before you take that final ride Oh John oh John play one last song Before you take that final ride [Outro] (Solo Progression to fade)
