Tom: D
Introdução:
D
Well now, boys I've been to Bethlehem
G
Rode there on a big steam train
D
Lost two fingers in the steel wheels
A D
And I ain't goin' back again.
D
I fought for my country
G
Lord knows I did my best
D
Crawlin' cross some foreign field
A D
They pinned a ribbon to my chest.
G
So pass around the bottle boys
D
Let's talk about old times
Night's rollin' in, it's cold as sin
A D
Here on the Welfare Line.
D
Served on a Georgia road gang
G
Couldn't pay the debts I owed
D
Cause I ain't made of silver
A D
And I ain't ever seen no gold.
D
I still remember Rachel
G
Soft as a velvet gown
D
They laid her in a pauper's grave
A D
On the other side of town.
D
Now some folks are born to money
G
You know I wish 'em well
D
If the Devil should ever want my soul
A D
I swear I'd never sell.
