I”ll Fly Away
[C] One fine morning when this life is over [F] I’ll fly [C] away.
[C] To a land where joys will never end [G] I’ll fly [C] away . . .
[CHORUS] [C] I’ll fly away, O Glory. [F] I’ll fly away
[C] When I rise, Hallelujah, by and by, [G] I’ll fly away [C]
[C] When dark shadows of this life draw nigh, [F] I’ll fly [C] away.
[C] Like a bird above these walls I’ll fly. [G] I’ll fly [C] away . . .
[CHORUS] [C] I’ll fly away, O Glory. [F] I’ll fly away
[C] When I rise, Hallelujah, by and by, [G] I’ll fly away [C]
[C] Just a few more weary days and then [F] I’ll fly [C] away.
[C] To a home secure and without end, [G] I’ll fly away [C]
[CHORUS] [C] I’ll fly away, O Glory. [F] I’ll fly away
[C] When I rise, Hallelujah, by and by, [G] I’ll fly away [C]
Help Me Make it Through the Night
Take the ribbon from your [C] hair, Shake it loose and let it [F] fall, lay it soft upon my [G] skin. Like the shadows on the [C] wall. [G]
Come and lay down by my [C] side till the early morning [F] light. All I’m takin’ is your [G] time. Help me make it through the [C] night. [C7]
I don’t care what’s right or [F] wrong. I won’t try to under [C] stand. Let the devil take to- [D] -morrow, cause tonight I need a [G] friend.
Yesterday is dead and [C] gone and tomorrow’s out of [F] sight. It’s so sad to be a- [G] -lone. Help me make it through the [C] night.
It’s so sad to be a- [G] -lone. Help me make it through the [C] night.
Achy Breaky Heart
[VERSE] – – – [C] You can tell the world, you never was my girl. You can burn my clothes up when I’m [G] gone. You can tell your friends just what a fool I’ve been, and laugh and joke about me on the [C] phone.
[C] You can tell my arms go back onto the farm. You can tell my feet to hit the [G] floor; or you can tell my lips to tell my fingertips, they won’t be reaching out for you no [C] more.
– – – – – – – – [CHORUS] – – – – – [C] But don’t tell my heart – my achy breaky heart, I just don’t think he’d [G] understand; and if you tell my heart – my achy breaky heart he might blow up and kill this [C] man. Oooooo
[VERSE] – – – [C] You can tell your ma, I moved to Arkansas. You can tell your dog to bite my [G] leg; or tell your brother Cliff whose fist can tell my lip. He never really liked me anyway.
Or [C] tell your Aunt Louise, tell her anything you please – myself already knows I’m not [G] OK; or you can tell my eyes to watch out for my mind it might be walking out on me [C] today.

– – – – – [Verse 1] – – – – – I [C] must take a trip to [G7] California, and leave my poor sweetheart [C] alone. If [C] he has a dog he won’t be [G7] lonesome, and the doggie will have a good [C] home.
[CHORUS] – – – – – [Verse 2] – – – – – I [C] read in the paper there are [G7] robbers with flashlights that shine in the [C] dark My love needs a doggie to [G7]protect him And scare them away with one [C] bark.
