Verse 1
Had to make himself some change
C
Cm
C
Shaved his head and caught a train
F
Em
C
But I keep my skillet greasy
F
Em
C
Keep my lamp trimmed 'n' low
F
Em
C
My weary feet, these floors I walk
F
G
C
But why I'll never know
And I hear echoes of his heart
G
C
Beating back from distant lands
And I hear the lonesome whistle
C
Verse 2
And I cuddle to my child
Teach him to bear the shame
To take the blows
The tos and fros that
Earn an honest name
F
Em
G
C
But money's running low, you know?
F

No friends to help me through
F

C
Just one last thing I can sell
F

C

And that will have to do

In the tremble of my hand
And I feel the rumblin' of the wheels

Verse 3
As the day goes walkin' west
And madness comes a- crawlin'
Through that hole inside my breast
F

And sorrow sings the sim
F
Em
G
C
That screams the whole night through
F
Em
C
A melody of him and me
F
G
C
That never rang so true
G
C
And I see dark clouds on the rise
G
C
And I see midgets in the sand
They paint my sight with visions

Verse 4
G
C
In the land of sticks and stones
Where the petty worries of the heart
C
F
Em
C
He took me in his arms, you know
F
Em
C
And tied me to his side
F
Em
C
Caught that first wind off the hills
F
G
C
And further we did ride
G

Well I felt his touch upon my breast
G
C
That unforgiving hand
But when I woke, could smell the smoke

Verse 5
runs through my skin
G
C
And the rain runs through my eyes
Can't find no ground to hold my feet
G
C
Lord knows how hard I tries!
F
Em
C
For come the dawn, I'll clean my teeth
F
Em
C
And powder up my chest
F
Em
C
Take off this faded apron, babe
F
G
C
And put on my Sunday best
To bind the strings to fix my heart
G
C
I'm gonna look to holy lands
And lay my back down on the track
G
C
Of that train that stole my man
