Intro: (D) (A) (E) (A)

No(A)body saw them running from 16th Aven(D)ue

They never found the (A) fingerprints or the weapon that was (E) used

But some(A)one killed country music, cut out its heart and (D) soul

They got away with (A) murder (E) down on music (A) row

The (A) almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide (D) fame

Slowly killed trad(A)ition and for that, someone should (E) hang

Oh, (A) they all say "Not Guilty!", but the evidence will (D) show

That murder was com(A)mitted (E) down on music (A) row

For the (D) steel guitars no longer cry and (A) fiddles barely play

But (B7) drums and rock 'n' roll guitars are (E) mixed up in your face

(A) Ol' Hank wouldn't have a chance on today's radi(D)o

Since they committed (A) murder (E) down on music (A) row

Fiddle Solo

They (A) thought no one would miss it once it was dead and (D) gone

They said no one would (A) buy them ol' drinkin' and cheatin' (E) songs

Well there (A) ain't no justice in it, and the hard facts are (D) cold

Murder's been com(A)mitted (E) down on music (A) row

For the (D) steel guitars no longer cry and (A) fiddles barely play

But (B7) drums and rock 'n' roll guitars are (E) mixed up in your face

(A) Ol' Hank wouldn't have a chance on today's radi(D)o

Since they committed (A) murder (E) down on music (A) row

Why they'd (A) even tell the 'possum to pack up and go back (D) home

There's been an awful (A) murder (E) down on music (A) row
