And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
GC
'Cause she turned and I was gone
CEm
I still might run in silence

Tears of joy might stain my face
CDm
And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind

You walkin' on the back roads

By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind
Verse 4CEm
I dip my cup of soup back
AmCDm
From a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron in some train yard
DmDb
My beard a rustlin' coal pile
Dm7GC
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face

Through cupped hands 'round a tin can
