[Verse]
     D
When I was just a young boy
   G
My daddy sat me down
                      D
And he taught me to appreciate
     E                A
That good old country sound
          D
There was Johnny Cash and Ernest Tubb
  G
I knew their songs quite well
                     D
But the one that I remember most
        A                 D
Was the queen, Miss Kitty Wells

[Verse]
D
She could sing a country song
     G
Like none I’d ever heard
                         D
Cause she poured out her heart and soul
     E7           A
With every single word
    D
And when she sang a gospel song
    G
You knew it was no lie
                      D
And songs of loss and tradtegy
           A                D
That would make a grown man cry

[Chorus]
    A                              D
So, God bless the queen of country music
      G                   D
She’s brought us all more happiness
     E7               A
Than words could ever tell
     A                              D
Yes, God bless the queen of country music
   G                D
He gave the world a treasure
        A             D
When He gave us Kitty Wells

[Solo]

[Verse]
  D
I can’t forget the first time
  G
I went to see her show
                    D
I walked inside and took my seat
      E7                 A
Right there on the front row
    D
And as she walked out on the stage
  G
A chill came over me
                     D
As I listened to her singing
     A            D
This haunting melody
G    G
I    can’t help wondering
D     A           D
Who’s holding you tight

[Chorus]
    A                              D
So, God bless the queen of country music
      G                   D
She’s brought us all more happiness
     E7               A
Than words could ever tell
     A                              D
Yes, God bless the queen of country music
   G                D
He gave the world a treasure
        A             D
When He gave us Kitty Wells

[Outro]
        G             D
This is Just away for me to say
   A              D
We love you Kitty Wells
