There was a chill that night in the hobo jungle
Am Em7 Ebm7 Dm7 G7
Over the train yard lay a smooth coat of frost
C G F Fm6
And although nobody here really knows where they`re goin`
Am Em7 Dm7 F G7 C
At the very same time nobody`s lost
C GC F Fm6Ab
Then the fire went out and the night grew still
Am Em Em7 Ebm7 Dm7 G7
This old man lay frozen on the cold, cold ground
C GC F Fm6Ab
He was a stray bird and the road was his callin`
Am Em7 Dm7
Ridin` the rods
G7 F C
Sleepin` under the stars
Am Em7 Dm7 F G7 C
Playin` the odds from a rollin` box car
C GC F Fm6Ab
She attended the fun`ral in the hobo jungle
Am Em Em7 Ebm7 Dm7 G7
Long were they lovers though never could they wed
C GC F Fm6Ab
Drifters and rounders and distant friends
Am Em7 Dm7
Here I lie without anger or regret
F G7 C
I`m in no one`s debt
D AD
Man goes nowhere
G Gm6Bb
Ev`rything comes like tomorrow
Bm F
