C F
We've got Silver Eagles rolling on the freeways everyday
G7 C
Singing country music all across the USA
F
But the wheels one day will fold up and our wings will take the curves
G7 C
When the shiny Silver Eagle meets the Great Speckled Bird
F
Then the Pearly Gates will open and all the angel band will ring
G7 C
Standing on that golden stage we'll hear the great ones sing
F
We'll have a Grand Ole Opry like no one has ever heard
G7 C
When the shiny Silver Eagle meets the Great Speckled Bird
F C
And when Gabriel blows his trumpet all the bands will be in tune
F C G7
And when that golden curtain rises there'll be only standing room
C F
We'll entertain the Master in His Grand Ole Opry church
G7 C
When the shiny Silver Eagle meets the Great Speckled Bird
