I sold the farm [A] to take my woman [E] where she [A] longed to be
[B] Left our kin and all our friends back [E] there in Tennessee
Brought those one [A]-way tickets [E] she had often begged me [A] for
[B] And they took us to the streets of [E] Baltimore
Oh, her [B] heart was filled with laughter [E] when she saw those city lights
And she said, the prettiest place on earth is Baltimore [B] at night
And [E] I'm going back on [A] that same train [E] that brought me here [A] before
[B] While my baby walked through the streets of [E] Baltimore
[G#] [E] Got myself [A] a factory job, [E] I ran an old [A] machine
[B] Bought a little cottage in a [E] neighborhood serene
Yet every night [A] when I came home [E] with every muscle [A] sore
She would [B] drag me through the streets of [E] Baltimore
[C#] Well, [E]
[B] I did my best to bring [E] her back to what she used to be
But I soon learned that she loved those bright lights much more than she [B] loved me
And
