Song Description

tribute to Johnny Cash

Lyrics

D
1. He started out in Memphis
A
Played with Elvis, played with Fire
He found a living Gospel
D
It just took his music higher

D
2. Now he?s on to his reward
A
With a guitar on his back
But I am glad I came to know
G D
The Man Who Dressed in Black

CHORUS:
G D
Bye and bye, bye and bye
A D D7
He?s gone to see Jesus bye and bye,
G
He has lived and he is gone
D
But do not cry too long
A D
He?s gone to see Jesus bye and bye

D
3. It?s a great a day in heaven
A
But it?s dark in Tennessee
Do not let the rain drops
D
Hide the truth you see

D
4. He?s out on Golden Pond
A
With June and his friends

Playing mountain music
G D
In a BAND that never ends

CHORUS

INTRUMENTAL OF VERSE

D
5. That eternal chorus
A
Now has a Boy Named Sue

I?m sure they?re glad to see him
D
But just a might scared, too

D
6. He?s gone to find a field of roses
A
See a clear blue sky

He?s gone to search heaven
G D
To look in Jesus? eyes

CHORUS:REPEAT (Dan only)
D
That big Man in Black
A
Won?t be lookin? back
G A D
He?s gone to sup with Jesus in the sky
