Only A Hobo Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

C' x30030

GAs I was out walking on a Ccorner one Gday,

 I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he Dlay.

 His Gface was all grounded in the Ccold sidewalk Gfloor

 And I guess he'd been there for the Dwhole night or Gmore.

COnly a hobo, but Gone more is gone

  D C' [G/b]

Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song

GLeavin' nobody to Ccarry him Ghome

 He was only a hobo, but Done more Cis Ggone

A blanket of newspaper covered his head,

As the curb was his pillow, the street was his bed.

One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come

And a fistful of coins showed the money he bummed.

Only a hobo, but one more is gone

Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song

Leavin' nobody to carry him home

Only a hobo, but one more is gone

Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down,

To look up on the world from a hole in the ground,

To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame,

To lie in the gutter and die with no name?

Only a hobo, but one more is gone

Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song

Leavin' nobody to carry him home

Only a hobo, but one more is gone
