Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Last [G]night I lived on
Franklin
Avenue
That time in [A]53 I re[C]member
hearing the [A]news
[G]They said
Atlanta [C]gone, we all [Em]knew
Mr.
[D]Wil[C]liams, talking [G]about you
Mama said you [C]couldn't hit a [G]star
Except you never [A]knew just
when you'd [C]gone too [A]far
[G]You must have been the
[C]man I listened [Em]to
Picking [D]slowly, [C]singing where you [G]blew
[A]Hey
Mr.
[Em]Wil liams, can y[C]ou play me a song?
[G]Sing it [C]loud and let it [D]roll and make it [Em]long
[A]I never knew y[Em]ou but
[C]you called me on [A]the phone
And you [C]sure do [D]feel like a [C]brother
[G][C][G]
[A][C][A][G][C][Em]
[D][C][G]
I know you had a [C]problem with [G]your life
Mama said you're [A]not
the kind of [C]man [A]who
They [G]left that big ol' [C]car
out in the [Em]dry
Seemed to won[D]der if they'd
[C]got you there in[G]side
[A]Hey,
Mr.
[Em]Wil liams, can y[C]ou play me a[G] song?
Sing [C]it loud and let [D]it roll and make [Em]it long
[A]I never k[Em]new you but
[C]you called it up [A]strong
And you [C]sure do [D]feel like a [C]brother
[G][C][G]
[A][C][A][G][C][Em]
[D][C]
[G]You
