Dear Hearts And Gentle People

Jim Reeves


Tom: D

             D               G      D
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
                   A7
Who live in my hometown
             D    D7         G
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
    D          A7      D
Who never ever let you down


[Verse 2]
                             G         D
They read the good book from Friday to Monday
                       A7
That's how the weekend goes
           D     D7         G
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
     D                  A7       D
With picket fence and a ramblin' rose


[Chorus]
          G            D
I feel so welcome each time that I return
                      E7                    A7
'Til my happy heart's laughin' like a clown
             D               G
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
    D                A7     D
Who live and love in my hometown


[Verse 3]
                             G         D
They read the good book from Friday to Monday
                       A7
That's how the weekend goes
           D     D7         G
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
     D                  A7       D
With picket fence and a ramblin' rose


[Chorus]
          G            D
I feel so welcome each time that I return
                      E7                    A7
'Til my happy heart's laughin' like a clown
             D                     G
I love those dear, dear hearts and gentle people
    D          A7      D
Who never ever let you down
