Verse 1
country doctor in a small Georgia town
G
Fame and fortune had passed him by
but we never saw him frown
As day by day in his kindly way
he served us one and all
C
Many a patient forgot to pay although
Doc's fees were small
But ol' Doc Brown didn't seem to mind
in fact he didn't even send out bills
F
His only ambition it seemed was to find
sure cures for aches and ills
C
Why nearly half the folks in our home town
G
And yes I'm one of them too were
ushered in by ol' Doc Brown
C
Dm
C
When we made our first
F
debaut ah he needed his dimes
And there were times
he'd receive a fee
Gm
But he would pass it on to some poor soul
C
that he said needed it worse than he
Gm
So when hard times hit our town and
C
drained each meager purse
Cm
F
The scanty income of Ol' Doc Brown
Gm
C
just went from bad to worse
F
He had to sell his furniture why he couldn't
even pay his office rent
Bb
And so to an old dusty room over a liberty
Bbm
stable Ol' Doc Brown and his satchel went
F
On the hitching post at the curb
C
below to advertise his wares
F
He nailed up a little sign that read "Doc
Gm
Brown has moved up stairs"
F
Bb
And there he kept on helping people
get well and his heart was pure gold
F
But anyone with eyes could see
that Doc was getting old
Then one day he didn't even answer when
C

they knocked upon his door

Bb
Ol' Doc Brown was lying down but
F
Bb
his life was no more
They found him there in his old black suit but
on his face was a smile of contentment
Eb
Cm
But all the money they could find on him was
Eb
a quarter and one ol' copper cent
Bb
So they opened up his ledger and what they
F
saw gave their hearts a pull
Bb
Cause beside each debtor's name Ol'
Eb
Doc had written "Paid in full"
Well it looked like the potter's field for Doc
and that caused us some alarm
Fm
'Till some one remembered the family
Bb
graveyard out on the Simmon's farm
Bbm
Ol' Doc had brought six of their kids in to this
Bb
world and Simmons was a grateful cuss
Eb
He said "Doc been like one of the family
Fm
Bb
so he can sleep with us."
Eb
Ol' Doc Brown should have had a
funeral fine enough for a king
Ab
It's a ghastly joke that our town was broke
Abm
and no one could give a thing
Except Jones the undertaker
Eb
he did mighty well
Bb
He donated an old iron casket he'd
Eb
Fm
Eb
never been able to sell
Ab

And the funeral procession well it wasn't
much for grace and pomp and style
Eb
Bbm
Eb
But those wagonloads of mourners
they stretched out for more than a mile
And we breathed a prayer as we laid him
there to rest beneath the sod
Ab
This man who had earned the right to be
on speaking terms with God
His grave was covered with flowers
Bbsus4
but not from the floral shop
Ab
Db
Just roses and things from folks gardens
and one or two dandelion tops
Eb
For times had hit our town hard
and each man carried a load
Ab
So some just picked the wild flowers as

they passed along the way
A
We wanted to give Doc a monument
we kind of figured we owed him one
Bm
Cause he had made our town a better place
E
for all the good he had done
Bm
But monuments cost money so we just
E
did the best we could
A
And on his grave we just placed
Bm
E
a monument of wood
A
We pulled up that old hitching post
where Doc had nailed his sign
D
We painted it white and to all of
us it surely did look fine
E
Now the rains and snow has washed away
our white trimmings of paint
And there ain't nothing left but Doc's old
A
sign and even that's getting faint
F#m
A
And still when southern breezes and
twinkling stars cross our little town
D
And pail moonlight shines through Georgia
F
pines on the grave of Ol' Doc Brown
E
You can still see that old hitching post
as if in answer to our prayers
Proudly telling the whole wide world Doc
Brown has moved up stairs
