                  CARLENE CARTER ft. VINCE GILL

CAPO: 3rd FRET

INTRO:
A D A  A

VERSE:
              A
Woke to the sound of my baby sister
  A
Crying like the day she was born
          D
`Cause an Angel of mercy
 D
Dressed all in white
          A
Came and said girls
       E             A
`Your momma`s passed on`

VERSE:
      A
So I gathered my children around me
              A
Through our tears we found and prayed
           D
Talked to God and Jesus
     D
And all them guys
          A   A
Who knew momma
     E        A
Was already there


CHORUS:
                      A
And the body`s gotta walk
      D        A
That Lonesome Valley
           D      E       A   A
You gotta walk it by yourself

            D
And nobody here
             A     A F#m
Can walk it for you
           A   D      E   A
You gotta walk it by yourself


VERSE:
           A
But Junie never knew a stranger
 A
She was friendly like that
        D
So we stood with our relations
                A                        E E A  A
And a bunch of strangers dressed in black


VERSE:
        A
Me and Rosie wore bright colors
 A
Momma woulda liked it like that
          D
Oh oh we led and let her momma sing Circle Be
 A                   E      A   A
She always said she wanted that


CHORUS:
                      A
And the body`s gotta walk
      D        A
That Lonesome Valley
           D      E       A   A
You gotta walk it by yourself

            D
And nobody here
             A     A F#m
Can walk it for you
           A   D      E   A  A
You gotta walk it by yourself


BREAK:
F#m         F#m
Life goes by
        D             D
In the blink of an eye
 A                               E  E
Body`s just a suitcase for your soul

F#m       F#m
When I let
         D          D
My hair down tonight
 A                                    E  E  B  B  B  B
Daughter right there smiling` down on me


VERSE:
      B
Well back home to see my family
        B
`Cause family keeps you strong
     E
But Johnny just cried
        E
`Cause Junie had died
    B         B
He didn`t care
      B  B
Carry on


VERSE:
       B
So we led him next to momma
            B
`Neath the rose covered ground
      E
Sang Anchored In Love,
  E
Peace In The Valley
  B            F#       B  B
Ohhhhhh, The Sweetest Sound


CHORUS:
                      B
And the body`s gotta walk
      E        B
That Lonesome Valley
           E      F#      B   B
You gotta walk it by yourself

            E
And nobody here
             B     B G#m
Can walk it for you

           B   G#m E       B
You gotta walk  it by yourself


OUTRO:

Gotta walk it by yourself

       B   E      F#  B
Gotta walk it by yourself

B     B E F# B   B E B
