[Verse]
Am                           C
In an Alabama graveyard on a cold December day
  G                              F               Am
A young man with a guitar stares in to space and plays
        C
There's no one there to listen
        G               Em
There's no on there but him
        F             C
And the Ghost of Hank Williams sings
      G                Am
"Your Cheatin Heart" again

[Chorus]
Am  Am/B  C

C                           G
Marty Robbins, Pasty Cline, Ernest Tubb, and Red Solvine
      F                G            Am
Jimmy Rodgers, and old Lefty was my friends
C                              G                Em
It's so lonesome here tonight, but someday I'll see the light
         F             C
When the ghost of Hank Williams sings
      G              Am
"Your Cheatin Heart" again

It was 2 AM in Nashville, the Ryman Stage was bare
          G                               F          Am
There was just a lot of memories from the Opry being there
       C                             G             Em
In the stillness of the morning On a cold December wind
    F             C
The Ghost of Hank Williams sings
      G              Am
"Your Cheatin Heart" again

[Chorus]

There's a DJ in Ohio that recalls that New Years Day
        G                             F              Am
When he had to tell the nation that a singer passed away
C                                       G                Em
Sometimes when it's late at night he'll let some records spin
        F             C
And the ghost of Hank Williams sings
      G                Am
"Your Cheatin Heart" again
