Verse 1
C 
B 
Em 
And what's a
E 
Em 
traveling woman to do?
E 
I'm in Chicago, it's a quarter to two
Em 
A 
Can't go out walking
on the streets alone
Em 
But there's nobody here
to make me at home
C 
And in the morning I'll
B 
Em 
be moving along anyway
I got no money, but I got no disease
I got a good heart and a body to please
A 
I  heard your story about
the virgin queen
Em 
But that ain't really quite the same as me
C 
B 
Em 
I need a lover to put my mind at ease
C 
B 
I need someone to take
Em 
the weight off me
C 
Show me someone
B 
Em 
A 
who will bring me to this town
C 
B 
Take me out and twirl me
Em 
A 
all around
C 
B 
Tell me he's so glad for
A 
what he's found
C 
But don't ever make me
B 
Em 
put my suitcase down
He said he loved me and I should be his kin
But that my travelin' would do him in
A 
The next one told me I could travel a lot
Em 
But when I came back, another girl he got
C 
B 
They make me feel like
Em 
I can't keep time
C 
B 
Em 
Or my timing's just too sublime
Then there was Jimmy
with his black cross tattoos
But he was busy with his own set of blues
A 
The way my heart felt
between Joey and Mike
Em 
Is what the desert between
oceans feels like
C 
In certain ways I've
B 
Em 
been around the world
C 
B 
In others I'm just a baby
Em 
A 
Em 
C 
B 
Em 
Some people tell me if
I'm telling the truth
Talk to me clearly now and don't delude
E 
A 
This ain't a suitcase full
of trinkets and clothes
Em 
Or  any other thing the
E 
world could impose
C 
B 
Em 
It's only full of what's pure as gold
C 
B 
Em 
To keep it safe from a world as cold
C 
B 
A 
So when it opens it's sure as gold
C 
Show me someone
B 
Em 
A 
Am 
who will bring me to his town
C 
B 
Em 
Take me out and twirl me all around
A 
C 
B 
Tell me he's so glad
A 
for what he's found
C 
But don't ever make me
B 
put my suitcase
C 
B 
Please, don't make
me put my suitcase
C 
I don't want to put
B 
Em 
my suitcase down
I don't want to put it down
E 
Em 
Em 
I don't want to put it down
A 
you
