Guy Hathorns Grocery Store Chords & Lyrics - Lake Fork Verne

Guy [D]Hathorn's Grocery store was [G]best by [D]far
He had a big round face, and stubby short [A]cigar
It [D]is [G]where everone [D]went
Mostly in buggies, but a few [A]in old cars

He [D]would candle [G]the country fresh [D]eggs
To make sure they were up to [A]par
Old [D]Guy [A]Hathorns Grocery [D]store
Was the best [A]by [D]far

My [D]Uncle Spic, he [G]was the [D]butcher
He learned his trade while in the [A]navy
White [D]garrison cap and [G]clean white [D]apron
He [D]could handle the [A]knife, and I dont mean [D]maybe

There was big [G]wooden ice [D]box
That kept the milk, cream and butter [A]cool
On [D]the far side of the [G]store were the shoes and [D]sox
You served yourself, honor [A]code was the [D]rule

Old Guy Hathorn [G]was a happy [D]man
He took care of clothes, produce fillin our [A]needs
Thinking [D]back, we were all [G]great [D]fans
A man you could count [A]on, [D]indeed.

Guy Hathorns store best by far
Happy [D]round face [A]short stubby [D]cigar
