A D E G D A D D E G D A D

[Verse]
 D                        Em             G
Where can you go to see the country music stars?
 D                  A          D
That’s what we come to Nashville for.
                       Em               G
No one comes around to play the pinball machines
D              A              D  D7
Nobody eats at Linebaugh’s anymore.


[Chorus]
    G                                  D
Now the Opry’s gone and the streets are bare.
                     A        D
Ernest Tubb’s record shop is dark.
                       Em                   G
And the drunks are gone from the Merchant’s Hotel
                 Em      A
Everybody’s gone to the park.

A D E G D A D D E G D A D

     D                         Em             G
Where can you go to see the country music stars,
 D                A           D
sittin drinkin’ coffee ‘til four?
 D                                        Em            G
Shoney’s closed at nine o’clock; there’s nothing left to do.
   D             A          D
Nobody eats at Linebaugh’s anymore.

     G                                 D
Now the Opry’s gone and the streets are bare.
                     A         D
Ernest Tubb’s record shop is dark.
         D                    Em            G
And the drunks are gone from the Merchant’s Hotel
                 Em       A
Everybody’s gone to the park.

 D                              Em                   G
Won’t no one hear the phone ring - is Benny Martin there?
     D                A                   D
Or watch to see who comes in through the door.
                      Em                          G
‘Cept the few that come around again to use the parking lot,
D                A              D
Nobody eats at Linebaugh’s anymore.

G                                 D
Now the Opry’s gone and the streets are bare.
                     A         D
Ernest Tubb’s record shop is dark.
         D                    Em            G
And the drunks are gone from the Merchant’s Hotel
                 Em       A
Everybody’s gone to the park.

 D                              Em                   G
Somewhere in the suburbs the Opry plays tonight,
   D                A                   D
but the people come around to take the rides.
D                              Em                   G
The park shuts up at bedtime; there’s nowheres else to go.
D                A              D
Nobody eats at Linebaugh’s anymore.
