Well, there's crying in the kitchen, there's running in the hall
                          C
Daddy's Winchester wasn't hanging on the wall
    G                             F
And it didn't seem like Christmas  very much at all

Mama set me to choppin' wood before the snow
                                               C
She said, "Daddy's gone to Richmond and that's all you need to know"
         G                                  F
I said, "I want to know why Carla's got that blood on her clothes"


[Chorus]
Am           F    Am              F
  Carla came home,  middle of the night
Am           F      D
  Sunglasses on and tears in her eyes

When Carla met Tom Walker, Daddy said, "He ain't no count"
                                            C
He'd grab his gun and go hunting when she'd bring him to the house
  G                                  F
Now something tells me Tom Walker is out of the picture now

 Well, they quit searching for my brother-in-law
                     C
Gave him a week then they called in the dogs
            G                          F
Well, there won't nobody miss him 'cept  maybe his ma
