Start Jamming...
[G]
Go to sleep, you weary [Am] hobo [G]
[D] Let the times drift [G] slowly by
Can't you hear the steel [Am]
rails humming?
[G]
[D] That's the hobo's [G]
lullaby
I know your clothes are torn [Am] and ragged [G]
[D] And your hair is [G] turning grey
But lift your head and [A] smile [Am] at trouble [D]
You'll find peace and [G] rest someday
Don't you worry about [A]
tomorrow [Am] [G]
[D] Let tomorrow come [G] and go
Tonight you're in a nice [Am] warm boxcar [D]
Safe from all that [Dm] [G] wind and snow
I know the police cause [A] you trouble [Am] [D]
They cause trouble [G] everywhere
When you die and go [Am] to heaven [G] [D]
You'll find no [G] policeman there
[C] [G] So go to sleep, you [A] weary [Am] hobo [D]
Let the times drift [G] slowly by
[C] [G]
Can't you hear the steel [A] rails [Am] humming?
[D]
That's the hobo's [G]
lullaby
Can't [C] [G]
you hear the steel [Am]
rails humming?
[G]
[D] That's the hobo's [G] lullaby
