_ _ [Bb] This is definitely a song all about [F] loneliness. _
You know, [C] there's so many different kinds of loneliness in this world.
Let me just tell you about one. _
Let's just [Bb] say a young farm boy, a country boy from Cape Red in Nova [F] Scotia,
well, he [Dm] might feel that he [C] should do something different than his daddy did,
farming, fishing, coal mining, working in a steel plant.
_ [Bb] You know, it's not that he's not proud of his daddy.
[F] It's just that the big city [Dm] has a way of [C] luring a country boy.
And besides, he'd find himself living in the 90s where there ain't much money in [Bb] farming.
The fishing's gone, the coal mining's going to [F] hell,
and the steel plant's going to [Dm] China piece by [C] piece.
_ _ _ So he'd find himself up in the big city, Toronto, [Bb] Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, it don't matter.
[F] Get himself a pretty good job, [Dm] a [C] factory somewhere,
work himself up to be foreman [G] someday, you can never [C] tell.
But you know, that still [Bb] don't help his loneliness.
A young [F] man like that need to find himself a good woman.
[C] Well, unfortunately, it would not be a good woman he'd find,
because it wouldn't be too long before the job would be [Bb] gone.
It'd be, dear John, I'm gone.
He'd be [F] gone down to the nearest Canadian National [C] Railway Station
trying to buy himself a train ticket home.
_ But guess what, folks?
[Bb] The passenger train don't even go down to [F] Cape Red anymore. _ _
_ [C] So he'd find himself at 4 o'clock in the early morning, cold and lonely and all alone,
down along the side of the railroad [Bb] track,
trying to hitch [F] himself his only way back.
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm gonna [Bb] take a freight train down [F] to the station, Lord.
I don't care [C] where it goes. _ _ _
I'm a _ [Bb] _ _ [F] national hero.
Gonna jump right off and [C] nobody gonna know.
_ Can't you see? _
Can't [Bb] you see?
I've [F] been around, doing [C] the main,
playing the blues, baby. _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [C] _
Oh, I'm gonna find [Bb] me a woman [F] of war _
[Dm] crawling [C] inside and dying, _ _ _
dying inside and dying, [Bb] dying, dying, dying, dying.
Me no woman, [F] Lord.
She never had the guts [C] to say goodbye.
_ Can't you see? _
_ [Bb] Can't you see?
_ [F] Goodbye, war.
It's been [C] so long, the pain.
_ Can't you see?
Can't [Bb] you see?
_ _ [F] _
Woman's been [C] doing the main, Lord. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ Can't you see?
_ [Bb] Can't you see?
_ [F] What that _ woman's [C] been doing to me.
_ Can't you see?
_ [Bb] Can't you see?
[F] What that woman's been doing [C] to me. _ _ _ _
