[E]
Go to sleep you weary [F#m]
hobo, [B] let the towns drift slowly [E] by.
Can't you hear the steel [C#m] rails [F#m] humming?

That's the hobo's [E] lullaby.
I know your clothes [C#m] are torn and [F#m] ragged, [B] and your hair is [E] turning grey.
Lift your head and smile at [A] trouble, [F#]
[B] you'll find peace and [E] rest some day.
So go to sleep you weary [F#m] hobo, [B] let the towns drift slowly [E] by.

Tonight you're in a [C#m] nice warm [F#m]
boxcar, [B] safe from all that [E] wind and snow.
So go to sleep you [C#m] weary [F#m]
hobo, [B] let the towns drift [E] slowly by.
