I'm telling you.
[Ab] Now [B] this tune [Db] here should [Ab] be easy for you to do.
All you got to do is remember [Db] back home,
you know what I mean?
When you were sitting out behind the house
practicing [B] on your old [Gb] git fiddle,
[Ab] trying to get things together and you couldn't [Eb] make up
in your mind, you [Ebm] kind of halfway knew what you [Dbm] wanted to do,
but [F] you didn't have it all [Ab] together.
But you did know you wanted to travel, ain't that right?
That's right.
Yeah.
[B] [Ab] I remember them days real good.
I know.
Didn't have very many clothes.
[B] [Db] Didn't know nobody to call, to send for you.
So you had to get out there and hitchhike.
[Ab]
Don't make no difference.
You say, [B] I'm going.
[Ab] I know I got to hitchhike, [Eb] but I'm going anyway.
[Db] Whatever happens, [F]
[B] let it [Ab] happen.
I got to pay my dues somewhere.
Dreamed that I was lucky, [B] but I woke up cold in the hand.
Hey, [Ab]
[Db] I dreamed that I was lucky, darlin',
but I woke [B] up cold in the hand.
[Db] [Ab] I dream I [Eb] had you all by myself, [Ab] [Db] but now I
know you found [Ab] you another man.
Oh, that's why I wonder, [Gb]
[Ab] will a matchbox hold my clothes?
Hey, [Db] sometimes I wonder, darlin',
[Dbm] will a [Abm] matchbox hold my clothes?
[Ab] Yeah, yeah.
You [Eb] know I haven't got so many, [Abm]
[Db] but I got so far [Ab] to go. Oh, yeah.

Yeah.
[Db] Hey, if you got a good and [Gb] lanky [Db] fella,
you better pin her [Abm] to your side.
Yeah, [Ab] yeah.
[Db] Because as he flagged my [Abm] train, buddy,
[Db] I'm bound to let her [Ab] ride well.
Oh, that's why I wonder, will a matchbox hold my [B] clothes?
[Ab]
Hey, [Db] sometimes I wonder, darlin',
will a matchbox [B] hold my [Ab] clothes?
Yeah, yeah.
You know I [Eb] haven't got so many, [Db]
