10 Angel Band D My latest sun is sinking fast My race is nearly run My strongest trials now are past My triumph has begun Oh come angel band Come and around me stand Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home I know I m near the holy ranks Of friends and kindred dear, I ve touched the dew on Jordan s banks, The crossing must be near. I ve almost reached my heav nly home, My spirit loudly sings; Thy holy ones, behold, they come!

11 Ashes of Love C Ashes of love cold as ice You made the debt and I'll pay the price Our love is gone there's no doubt Ashes of love the flame burned out The love light that gleamed in your eyes Has gone out to my surprise We said goodbye my heart bled I can't revive our love, it's dead I trusted dear our love would stand Your every wish was my command My heart tells me I must forget I loved you then I love yet I I IV I V V V V I I I IV I V V V V I

12 At the End of a Long Lonely Day A By Marty Robbins At the end of a long lonely day without you When the world seems to fall in my face I'm all right through the day, but the day fades away And a long lonely night takes its place Another day to wish that you were here I dread each lonely night that's filled with tears Though I've tried and I've tried, These are tears that I can't hide At the end of a long lonely day At the end of the day I go up to my room And I watch while the sun fades away And the loneliness there brings me grief and despair At the end of a long lonely day Another day to sit alone and cry It makes no difference if I live or die With the world locked outside, I just lay there and cry At the end of a long lonely day

13 Away Out on the Old Saint Sabbath C [Instrumental Break] Away out on the old Saint Sabbath Lay down to take my rest My knapsack for my pillow And my gun across my chest Please don't bury me on the lone pa-rairie Please don't bury me on the lone prairie You can bury me in the east, you can bury me in the west Please don't bury me on the lone prairie My father, he lies sleeping Beneath the deep blue sea I have no father, no mother There's none but Nell and me [Instrumental Break] My mother she lies sleeping Beneath the churchyard sod Her body lies there moldering And her spirit has gone to God

14 Banks of the Ohio C (Greenbriar Boys version) I asked my love to take a walk To take a walk, just a little way Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the Ohio And only say that you'll be mine In no other arms entwine Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the Ohio I held a knife against her breast As into my arms she pressed She cried oh Willie, don't you murder me I'm not prepared for eternity I took her by her lily white hand And dragged her down that bank of sand There I throwed her in to drown I watched her as she floated down I started home between twelve and one I cried my God what have I done Killed the only woman I loved Because she would not be my bride The very next morn about half past four The Sheriff came knocked at my door He said now young man come now and go Down to the Banks of the Ohio

15 Beautiful Db or C Beautiful robes of white beautiful land of light Beautiful home so bright where there shall come no night Beautiful crown I ll wear shining with stars go there Yonder in mansions fair gather us there Beautiful robes (beautiful robes) Beautiful land (beautiful land of light) Beautiful home (beautiful home so bright) Beautiful band (beautiful band of might) Beautiful crown (beautiful beautiful crown Shining so fair (shining yes shining so fair) Beautiful mansion bright gather us there (yes gather us there) Beautiful thought to me we shall forever be There in eternity when this world we re free Free from its toils and cares heavenly joys to share Let me cross over there this is my prayer Beautiful things on high over in yonder sky Thus I shall leave this shore, counting my treasures o er Where we shall never die, carry me by and by Never to sorrow more, heavenly store

16 Beautiful Brown Eyes A or C (an Arkansas version) Beautiful beautiful brown eyes Beautiful beautiful brown eyes Beautiful beautiful brown eyes I'll never love blue eyes again. For seven long years I ve been married I wish I had stayed an old maid My husband he drinks and he gambles And he won t work at his trade He promised me when we were married He d dress me all stylish and gay And every night in the winter He d take me to a ball or some place Down through the barroom he staggered And he fell down at the door The very last words that he uttered I ll never be drunk any more I I IV IV I I V V I I IV IV I V I I

17 The B-I-B-L-E C Some people stay out late at night and D-R-I-N-K And never of their loved ones do T-H-I-N-K They d change their way of doing and oh so happy be If they would just R-E-A-D the B-I-B-L-E We d better start to reading the B-I-B-L-E There s comfort hope and joy in the book of G-O-D It tells us there in language, so P-L-A-I-N The D-E-V-I-L wants them to live in S-I-N Some sit at their rich tables and C-A-R-V-E While other people suffer and S-T-A-R-V-E They d feel so H-A-P-P-Y and F-R-double-E If they would just R-E-A-D the B-I-B-L-E G-A-B and G-A-B that s all some people do They d rather tell an L-I-E than to tell the truth They d change their way of doing and oh so happy be If they would just R-E-A-D the B-I-B-L-E

18 The Birds Were Singing of You G Last night the pale moon was shining Last night when all was still I was wandering alone in sadness Out among the woodland hills I heard the birds a-singing Among the trees and dew And all the birds, my darling Were singing, were singing of you Were singing, were singing of you (my love) Were singing, were singing of you And all the birds, my darling Were singing, were singing of you I think of you in the daytime I dream of you by night I wake and wish you was here love And tears are blinding my sight The flowers that slumber so sweetly The stars are above the blue Oh, heaven itself, my darling Is thinking, is thinking of you Is thinking, is thinking of you (my love) I opened my windows so gently Looked out on the dreaming dew And all the world, my darling Was sighing, was sighing for you Was sighing, sighing for you (my love)

19 Blue Kentucky Girl C You left me for the bright lights of the town A country boy set out to see the world Remember when those neon lights shine down That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl I swear I love you by the moon above you How bright is it shining in your world Some morning when you wake up all alone Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl Don't wait to bring great riches home to me I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls Just bring yourself, you're all I'll ever need That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl

20 Blue Ridge Cabin Home C There's a well beaten path on this old mountainside Where I wandered when I was a lad And I wandered alone to the place I call home In the Blue Ridge hills far away Oh I love those hills of old Virginia From those Blue Ridge hills I did roam When I die won't you bury me on the mountain Far away in my Blue Ridge mountain home Now my thoughts wander back to that brown mountain shack In those blue ridge hills far away There my mother and dad were laid there to rest They are sleeping in peace together there I return to that old cabin home with the sigh I've been longing for days gone by When I die won't you bury me on that old mountain side Make my resting place upon the hills so high

21 Blues Stay Away From Me A Blues stay away from me Blues why don't you let me be Don't know why you keep on haunting me Love was never meant for me True love was never meant for me Seems somehow we never can agree Life is full of misery Dreams are like a memory Bringing back your love that used to be Tears so many I can't see Years don't mean a thing to me Time goes by and still I can't be free I I I I IV IV I I V V I I

22 The Box It Came In Eb My clothes are all ragged My goodwill coat's not the best And I'm walking on cardboard In my last dollar dress I looked in the closet For my wedding gown But the box that it came in Was all that I found He took everything with him That wasn't nailed down Bet he's got a new sweetheart To fill my wedding gown But somewhere I'll find him Then I'll have peace of mind And the box he comes home in Will be all satin lined

23 Bury Me Beneath the Willow Bb (can be C) My heart is sad I am lonely For the only one I love When shall I see him oh no never 'Til we meet in heaven above Oh, bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So he will know where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me He told me that he dearly loved me How could I believe it untrue Until the angels softly whispered He will prove untrue to you Tomorrow was our wedding God oh God where can he be He's out a courting with another And no longer cares for me

24 Cabin on the Hill There's a happy childhood home in my memory I can see Standing out upon the hill 'neath the shadow of the tree If I only had my way it would give my heart a thrill Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill. Oh I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill 'Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still Just to be with those I love joy my heart would over fill Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill But the saddest of it all I can never more return To that happy childhood home matters not how much I yearn If I only had my way it would give my heart a thrill Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill

25 Can t You Hear Me Calling By Bill Monroe The days are dark the nights are lonely Since you left me all alone Oh how I ve loved my little darling I ve worried so since you've been gone Sweetheart of mine can't you hear me calling A million times that I love you best I mistreated you, lord, and I'm sorry Come back to me is my request I remember now the night we parted A big mistake has caused it all If you ll return sunshine will follow To stay away would be my fall The days are dark my little darling Oh how I need your sweet embrace When I awoke the sun was shining When I looked up and I saw your face

26 Cold Cold Heart A I(5) tried so hard my dear to show that you re my every dream (V). Yet you re afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart Why can t I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying now for things I didn t do In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start Why can t I free your doubtful mind,and melt your cold cold heart You ll never know how much it hurts to see you sat and cry You know you need and want my love yet you re afraid to try Why do you run and hide from lies,to try it just ain t smart Why can t I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory The more I learn to care for you,the more we drift apart Why can t I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart

27 Coming Down From God D You better get in that number that no man can number You better get in that number that no man can number You better get in that number that no man can number Coming down, coming down from God Mother better join that number that no man can number When Jesus awakes her from her great slumber Voice heard from heaven will be louder than thunder Coming down, coming down from God Better tell your children there ll be a great meeting When the saints of God go out to greet him Are you getting ready then to receive him for it s Coming down, coming down from God Father s in that number that no man can number Father s in that number that no man can number Father s in that number that no man can number Coming down, coming down from God

28 Crying My Heart Out Over You Bb or B By Carl Butler Off somewhere the music s playing soft and low, And another holds the one that I love so I was blind I could not see, that you meant the world to me, But like a fool I stood and watched you go (chorus) Now I m crying my heart out over you Those blue eyes now they smile at someone new, Ever since you went away, I die a little more each day Cause I m crying my heart out over you Each night I climb the stairs up to my room It seems I hear you whisper in the gloom I miss your picture on the wall, and your footsteps in the hall While I m crying my heart out over you (chorus)

29 Crying Time A By Buck Owens Well it s crying time again you re going to leave me I can see that far away look in your eyes I can tell by the way you hold me darling That it won t be long before it s crying time They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder And that tears are only rain to make love grow But my love for you can never grow no stronger If I live to be a hundred years old They say that you found someone you love better That s the way it happened every time before And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow Crying time will start when you walk out the door

30 Detour Detour, there's a muddy road ahead, detour Paid no mind to what it said Detour, oh these bitter things I find, Should have read That detour sign Headed down life's crooked road, lots of things I never knowed Because of me not knowin', I now pine Trouble got in the trail, spent the next 5 years in jail Should have read that detour sign When I got right to the place where it said "About Face" I thought that all my worries were behind But the farther I go, more sorrow I know Should have read That detour sign When I got stuck in the mud all my hopes dropped with a thud I guess that my heart strings are made of twine Have no willpower to get from the hole that I'm in yet Should have read that detour sign

31 Don t Let Her Know Buck Owens Lips make a smile on my face Eyes don't let her see you shed a tear Heart don't let her hear you skip a beat And pride don't let her know how much I care Don't let her know don't let her know how much I care Laugh dance and sing so she won't notice The hurt that's still burning deep inside And don't let her see the way I tremble Don't let her know how much I cried Don't let her know don't let her know How much I've cried

32 Don t Neglect the Rose Emma Lee Smith Bb There stands a rose down in your garden You left it there so all alone It feels neglected, feels unwanted Since no love to it is shown. Its beauty now is vastly fading Once it was the brightest red It's withering fast, its head is bowing And no kind words to it are said. Please don't neglect the rose in your garden Show it your love every day It will bloom for you in all its beauty And it will not fade away I hope by now you know my story Don't neglect a love that's true For it could be the sweetest flower That will ever bloom for you. It could be your mother, sister or brother Husband, wife or little child Or it could prove to be your own true lover You've neglected all the while. Chorus

33 Don t This Road Look Rough & Rocky (from Flatt & Scruggs) C Darling, I have come to tell you Though it almost breaks my heart That before the morning darling We'll be many miles apart Don't this road look rough and rocky Don't that sea look wide and deep Don't my baby look the sweetest When she's in my arms asleep Don't you hear the night birds crying Far across the deep blue sea While of others you are thinking Won't you sometimes think of me One more kiss before I leave you One more kiss before we part You have caused me lots of trouble Darling you have broke my heart

34 Down to My Last Broken Heart By Chick Raines (sung by Janie Fricke) Well, I've been down to my last dime, down to my last dance Down to the last time, down to my last chance Well, I've been down to nothing, left at all a time or two This time I think I'm down to something, I can't afford to lose I think I'm down to my last broken heart I think I'm falling in love with you, I'm just afraid to start But until I know for sure our love won't fall apart 'Cause I think I'm down to my last broken heart Well, I can feel the spark of love and it's a sweet dream But will there be enough to keep on burning Well, I've felt the flame of love before and I watched it burning out This time I wanna know for sure, without a doubt 'Cause I think I'm down to my last broken heart I think I'm falling in love with you, I'm just afraid to start But until I know for sure our love won't fall apart 'Cause I think I'm down to my last broken heart Yes, I think I'm down to my last broken heart

35 The Drunkard s Grave A I once knew a man owned houses and land Was wealthy noble and brave Whiskey beer and gin got the best of him Now he lays in a drunkard s grave. Chorus Oh how lonely oh how sad just to think of the strong drink they crave And then in the end, lose their dearest friends and lay in a drunkard s grave He had a lovin wife he loved her more than life And in his younger days tried to save Took his first drink for fun, you see what it has done He lays in a drunkard s grave Let us pity them who drink, from their presence do not shrink But pray to god that he their soul might save Theirs will be an awful fate if they wait til it s too late For they ll lay in the drunkard s grave

36 Dust on the Bible Bailes Brothers A I went into a home one day to see some friends of mine Of all the books and magazines not a Bible could I find... I asked them for the Bible when they brought it what a shame For the dust was covered o'er it not a fingerprint was plain. Dust on the Bible, dust on the holy word The words of all the prophets and the sayings of our Lord... Of all the other books you'll find there's none salvation holds Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul. Now you can read your magazines read of love and tragic shows And not one verse of scripture not one verse do you know The Bible has the very truth, its contents good and whole But dust on the Bible will doom your poor soul. Now if you have a friend you d like to help along life s way Just tell him that the Good Book shows a mortal how to pray The best advice to give him that will make his burdens light Is to dust the family bible. trade the wrong for the right

37 Eight More Miles to Louisville Grandpa Jones A I've traveled o'er this country wide seeking fortune fair Up and down the two coast lines I've traveled everywhere From Portland East to Portland West back along the line I'm going now to the place that's best that old hometown of mine apart Eight more miles and Louisville will come into my view Eight more miles on this old road and I'll never more be blue I knew some day that I'd come back I knew it from the start Eight more miles to Louisville the hometown of my heart asleep There's bound to be a gal somewhere that you like best of all Mine lives down in Louisville she's long and she is tall But she's the kind that you can't find a traveling through the land I'm on my way this very day to win her heart and hand I can picture in my mind a place we'll call our home A humble little hut for two we'll never want to roam The place that's right for that love sight is in them bluegrass hills Where gently flows the Ohio by a place called Louisville

38 Elecricity Jimmie Murphy A Now you can t see electricity a-moving on the line How in the world can you doubt it when you can see it shine When you get salvation, the current you can feel You won t have to have nobody to tell you that it s real Some people don t know good music when they hear it in the air Some people they don t know god when they kneel down in prayer I m a-gonna tell you people and I m not gonna tell you wrong When you get Salvation, you ll know it by its song Some people don t like religion, they think it s all a fake It s just as real good people as eating a t-bone steak It s as sweet as any honey that any bee can make Or a big bowl of molasses or a great big chocolate cake

39 Faded Coat of Blue War of 1812 G My brave boy sleeps in his faded coat of blue In a lowly grave unknown lies a heart that beats so true He sank faint and hungry among the vanquished braves And they laid him sad and lonely within his nameless grave CHORUS: No more the bugle calls the weary one Rest noble spirits in their graves unknown I ll find you and know you among the good and true Where a robe of white is given for a faded coat of blue He cried give me water and just a little crumb And my mother she will bless you for all the years to come And tell my sweet sister so gentle good and true That I'll meet her up in heaven in my faded coat of blue No dear one was nigh him to close his mild blue eyes No gentle voice was by him to give him sweet reply No stone marks the grave of the lad so brave and true In a lowly grave he's sleeping in his faded coat of blue

40 Faded Love Eb By John Wills/Bob Wills (as released by patsy cline august 5, 1963) As I look at the letters that you wrote to me It's you that I am thinkin' of As I read the lines that, to me, were so dear I remember our faded love (chorus) I miss you darlin', more and more every day As heaven would miss the stars above With every heartbeat, I still think of you And remember our faded love (musical tag) As I think of the past and all the pleasures we had As I watch the mating of the dove It was in the springtime that you said goodbye I remember our faded love (repeat chorus) And remember our faded love

41 Farther Along Bb (can be C) Farther along we'll know all about it Farther along we'll understand why Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine We'll understand it all by and by Tempted and tried we re oft made to wonder Why it should be thus all the day long While there are others living about us Never molested though in the wrong When death has come and taken our loved ones It leaves our home so lonely and drear Then do we wonder why others prosper Living as sinners year after year Faithful till death said our loving Master A few more days to labor and wait Toils of the road will then seem as nothing As we sweep thru the beautiful gate

42 The Fiddler F Charlie Moore (bluegrass singer died 1979) When the fiddler has played his last tune for the night The singer has sung his last song The mandolins and guitars and banjos are quiet The loud noisy crowd has gone on cho: There's nothing as quiet as a night without music Or as dark as a night with no stars There's nothing as lonesome as a cold empty room Just wonderin' all night where you are As we walked together the music was playing Whispering, soft, through the trees With your arms around me you whispered "I love you" And the words seemed to float on the breeze Now the fiddler has played his last tune for the night The singer has sung her last song The mandolins and guitars and banjos are quiet Like the music, sweetheart, you are gone

43 Fifty Miles of Elbow Room Twelve hundred miles its length and breadth The four square city stands Its gem set walls of jasper shine Not made by human hands A hundred miles its gates are wide Abundant entrance there With fifty miles of elbow room On either side to spare When the gates swing wide on the other side Just beyond the sunset sea There'll be room to spare as we enter there Room for you and room for me For the gates are wide on the other side Where the flowers ever bloom On the right hand, on the left hand Fifty miles of elbow room Sometimes I'm cramped and crowded here And long for elbow room I want to reach for altitude Where fairest flowers bloom It won't be til I shall pass Into that city fair With fifty miles of elbow room On either side to spare

44 Gently Lead Me D Recording is on The Acme Sessions 1952/56 Written by Frank M. Davis in an 1896 hymnal. Gently lead me lest I stray O my Savior, day by day Safely lead till life is past Till I reach the fold at last. Lead......me, O my sav......ior (Lead and guide me, O my savior, blessed savior) Lead me gently on (Lead, O lead me gently on) Lead.....me, O my shep......herd (Lead and guide me, O my shepherd, lead and guide me) Lead me till the day is gone Lead me when the way is steep Through the torrents wide and deep Guide me to the waters still Trusting thee I fear no ill. When the evening shadows fall Let me hear thee sweetly call Night or day I know thou voice And I'll follow and rejoice

45 Give Me Your Love and I ll Give You Mine A Just at the close of a bright summer day Just as the twilight has faded away Soft on the breeze like the coo of the dove Someone was singing an old song of love Tell me you love me and say you ll be true I love nobody in this world but you Your heart and my heart in love will entwine Give me your love and I ll give you mine Come along with me to the quiet shady nook Where flowers bloom at the side of the brook Nature is sleeping the birds are at rest I ll place a wild rose on your beautiful breast Tell me you love me and say you ll be true I love nobody in this world but you Your heart and my heart in love will entwine Give me your love and I ll give you mine I ve something to ask you while you re by my side A question of love, a groom and a bride And if you refuse me my heart it will pine Give me your love and I ll give you mine

46 Go Away With Me Dan Welch A Go (3) go go away with me and I Know you soon will forget All the false love that's haunting your memories Go and you'll never regret You're (5) his plaything and nothing more He will hurt you he's done it before Then you'll cry cry cry out in vain When his heart will go wandering again So hide all those tears in your eyes I will love you and you'll realize that your Life holds so much in store When you re wanted and loved and adored

47 Golden River C By Stuart Hamblen (Western movie actor) I hate to see night shadows fall, I hate to see a moon above For it brings back old memories of you When my darling Lola Lee strolled along the shore with me We watched that golden river glide on by. Golden river, golden river, you took my love from me On your waves of golden hue, you carried her with you And you broke my heart a million, million ways. Now I sit and wonder why I get so blue I want to cry And that golden moon climbs slowly in the sky. It was on a night like this when she gave me her last kiss Climbed in her birch canoe and sailed away

48 Gosh I Miss You All the Time A When whippoorwills are calling Night is gently falling That s when I miss you most When I'm feeling lonely Thinking of you only That's when I miss you most I'm deep in meditation Searching all creation For the one that's so divine I'll miss you when its day light I'll miss you when its midnight Gosh I miss you all the time When church bells are ringing Nightingales are singing That s when I'll miss you most When I'm feeling lonely Thinking of you only That s when I'll miss you most When old friends get together In any kind of weather I feel like I'm left behind I miss your arms a stealing Around me so appealing Gosh, I miss you all the time

49 Green Rolling Hills of West Virginia C by Bruce Phillips, last verse Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard Oh the green rolling hills of West Virginia Are the nearest place to Heaven that I know Though the times are sad and drear And I cannot linger here They will keep me and never let me go. My Daddy said don't ever be a miner For a miner's grave is all you'll ever own Cause of hard times everywhere I can't find a dime to spare These are the worst times I've ever known.
