[F]
Well he woke up that morning and he called into work
Put on his daddy's old suit with his second [Gm] hand shirt
All untucked, shoes [F] untied The people all snickered as [C] he walked [Bb] by
So he stopped in a [Gm] bar and bought a shot of [F] Stevens and another
He
[Bb] [Gm] bummed a cigarette and said, talking with a [F] stranger about the weather
[D] And then he paid his [C] bill and he stepped [F] outside
Fell down [Bb] into the street [F] He cursed and he [C] cried as he climbed back
[Bb] up to his feet [C] again So [F] up the road he found a payphone and called
his mom He said, Mom, I think I'll be coming [Bb] home
I've been feeling so bad and tired of this [F] city
Ain't been the same since I [G] lost my [Bb] pretty Angeline
My [G] mama, I miss [F] her so It's [Bb] been [Gm] over a [Bb] year and there ain't [G] nothing
I [F] fear so much as being alone [Am]
[Dm] And then he hung up the phone [C] without saying
goodbye [F] Stopped in a [Bb] store and bought a postcard
And the [F] sign did fairly [C] well, and sent him back [Bb] home to you, [C] Mom
[F] [C] [Dm] [C] Looking back, I'd [Bb] say it wasn't [F] so much the girl
[Bb] As it [F] was the booze and the dope and the [C] way it took the weight of the world
up upon [Dm] his shoulders And [Bb] let it wash the blue from his eyes as
[F] he grew colder [Bb] Through all those [C] lonely nights there left
[D] alone [C] So [F] he was just 23 when he stepped out on that
ledge It was his weary heart that pushed him to
the [Bb] edge He was tired of living life and looking for
[F] love A weary heart just needs a little [Bb] touch
and ends with too much to ask He cried as he stepped [F] into the wind
He [Bb] turned his back on the world and he fell back to [F] earth again
So [C] [Dm] with the wind in his [C] hair and a smile on his [F] face
He crashed through the [Bb] hood of an old 98 [F] And he laid there [C] dying on a cold winter's
[Bb] day All alone [C] [F] All alone
