Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

On my way home, By that lonesome graveyard

On my way home, By that lonesome graveyard

 A ghost jumps up and says 'Come on, be my man'

No ghost at all, someone asking for a ride

No ghost at all, someone asking for a home

 She says 'Come here boy and take me, to your room'

(CLARINET SOLO):

That young ghost woman, she keeps, she keeps me thin

That young ghost woman, she keeps, she keeps me thin

 She spends all the money I make on the L & N

I ain't no lamp, but my wick is burning low

I ain't no lamp, but my wick is burning low

 Better light me up another before I go

On my way home, by that lonesome graveyard

On my way home, By that lonesome graveyard

 A ghost jumps up and says 'Come on, be my man'
