Verse 1
D
Up at Henry's Bar & Grill
G
On the north side of town
A
I saw a man reach up to heaven
D
And pull a song on down
To a smoke filled room of misfits
G
Young and old and big and small
A
And with the laughing eyes of the Buddha
He shared it with us all
D
Verse 2
Bm
And every soul in that roadhouse
G
Felt the power of his song
E
Through life's joys and sorrows
A
He brought us together as one
Bm
G
They called him "God's own yodeler,
The Pavarotti of the plains"
A
There's no bigger voice in Texas
D
Don Walser was his name
Verse 3
D
A
D
He was raised out in Lamesa
G
Just a boy when his mamma died
A
With daddy at the mill all night
D
In that empty house he cried
He'd climb up in the oak tree
G
To sing his broken heart
A
The neighbors gathered in the yard
Listening in the dark
D
Verse 4
Bm
Singing songs about West Texas
G
E
Cowboys and old John Deeres
Rodeos and drive- ins
A
And the thrill of teenage years
Bm
G
They called him "God's own yodeler,
The Pavarotti of the plains"
A
There's no bigger voice in Texas

Don Walser was his name

Verse 5
D
From the honky- tonks and dance halls
A
Don Walser brought a smile
D
To every fan who came to see
G
Now it's oxygen and wheelchairs
And trips to the docs in town
A
The stays kept getting longer
He knew he was glory bound
D
Verse 6
Bm
My friend, your work is done here
G
And I'd say you did it well
E
Your voice rings down from heaven
A
All the way to the devil himself
Bm
And now you're God's own yodeler
G
High above the Texas plains
A
We miss you here in Austin
D

With love we speak you
