"I COULD NEVER BE ASHAMED OF YOU"  by H.Williams, pub.Acuff-Rose music, 1952

    C                      G
Everybody says you let me down

                                      C
That I should be ashamed to take you 'round

                                     F
Makes no difference what you used to do;

          G                          C
Darling, I could never be ashamed of you.

      F                    C
Maybe you were reckless yesterday

      D                         G
but together, we can find a brighter way.

      C                                 G
In my heart, I know that you'll come through

                                C
Darling, I could never be ashamed of you


All the happiness I've ever known
came the day you said you'd be my own
and it matters not what we go through
Darlin I could never be ashamed of you

Maybe you've been cheated in the past,
and perhaps those memories will always last
even though you proved to be untrue
darlin I could never be ashamed of you.


- This song is in my head lately thanks to the George Jones version from
the early '60s, out on a couple of compilations such as "Sings the Songs of
his Country Cousins".
