                The fact that this song is not on this site yet saddens me. 

C                         F 
Harry Truman was our president 
  G                               C 
A coke and burger cost you thirty cents 
                               F 
I was still in love with Mavis Brown 
C                 G                C 
On the night Hank Williams came to town 
  
                       F 
I Love Lucy debuted on TV 
     G                          C 
That was one big event we didn't see 
                                       F 
Cause no one stayed at home for miles around 
C                     G                C 
It was the night Hank Williams came to town 
  
F                               C 
Momma ironed my shirt and daddy let me take the truck 
  D                            G  
I drove on out to Grapevine and picked old Mavis up 
C                                     F 
We hit that county line for one quick round 
C                 G                C 
On the night Hank Williams came to town 
  
                                   F 
A thousand people sweltered in the gym 
     G                                 C 
Then I heard someone whisper hey that's him 
                                             F 
That's when the crowd let out this deafening sound 
C                     G                C 
It was the night Hank Williams came to town 
  
                           F 
On and on he sang into the night 
   G                                 C 
Jambalaya, Cheating Heart, I Saw the light 
                                   F 
How'd they get Miss Audrey in that gown 
C                 G                C 
On the night Hank Williams came to town  

F                               C 
Mavis had her picture made with Hank out by his car 
D                                G  
She said he sure is humble for a Grand Ole Opry star 
C                            F 
Mavis said why don't we hang around 
C                        G                 C 
It ain't often that Hank Williams comes to town 
  
F                                  C 
While Hank signed his autograph on Beaulah Rizner's fan 
D                             G  
Mavis got acquainted with the Drifting Cowboys Band 
C                                     F 
The effect on all our lives was quite profound 
C                 G                C 
On the night Hank Williams came to town
