paroles de chanson A World Without Haggard - Vince Gill

I was on the road in Georgia
When I heard Merle had passed away
Hell, I thought he'd live forever
He shaped every note I played

Some nights these old white lines look different
Than they usually do
He was my greatest inspiration
The reason why I sing the blues

He taught me how to play the guitar
And write a country song
He spent time in San Quentin
For the things that he'd done wrong

He made me proud to be an Okie
And God knows we paid our dues
He was my greatest inspiration
The reason why I sing the blues

Oh, I'm lost in a world without Haggard
Oh, who'll tell the truth to you and me?
Oh, I'm lost in a world without Haggard
It's a world I thought I would never see

He gave his life to country music
He's the best that's ever been
An honest voice of reason
Like we won't see again

If I could hear one last song
It's Merle that I would choose
He was my greatest inspiration
The reason why I sing the blues

He was my greatest inspiration
The reason why I sing the blues
