[Em] Mama don't [A] understand it, she [Em] wants to know [A] where I've been
I'd [Em] have to be [A] some kind of natural born [Bm] fool to want to pass [C] that way again

Sail on home to Jesus, [Am] won't you good girls and [G] boy?

I'm all in pieces, [C] you can have your [Am] own [D] choice

I [Em] don't know nothing about [A] the wild wind but I [Bm] can tell you that [C] it's bound to [D] be
Because I could feel it, child, yeah, [C] [G] on a country [D] road
