Nashville Angel

We'd sit at your kitchen table playing cards
Then you'd slowly stand and put a record on
And you'd tap your toes and sing along when you'd hear your favorite song
Tell me stories of the Ryman, and the stars you'd seen long gone

You lit a fire in my heart
To see my name in the stars

I feel your hand on my shoulder
Every time I step in those lights
And I see the smile on your face
When I sing
And I know you walk beside me
Guide me through my darkest night
Cause you're my
Nashville Angel

All I've left of you are these records you played for me
And the necklace that you wore to the Grand Ol' Opry
And a faded worn out picture marked with stains from my tears
And your whisper in my ear that one day I'll make it here

I feel your hand on my shoulder
Every time I step in those lights
And I see the smile on your face
When I sing
And I know you walk beside me
Guide me through my darkest night
Cause you're my
Nashville Angel

You're my Nashville Angel
