Hugh Laurie

Key: 
F       C7     F     F7   Bb   
All around the water tank 

    Bbm    F
waiting for a train

  Bb              F         
A thousand miles away from home 

Dm   G7              C7
sleeping in the rain

  F         C7   F        F7     
I walked up to a brakeman just to

 Bb          Bbm      F
 give him a line of talk

   Bb                  F          
He said if you've got money I'll 

G7                 C7
see that you don't walk

F              C7    F      F7  
Well I haven't got a nickel not 

  Bb           A7
a penny can I show

   Bb                F            
He said get off you railroad bum 

       G7          C7     F
and he slammed the boxcar door


C7      F      C7     F    F7  
Well he put me off in Texas a 

Bb      Bbm     F
place I dearly love

    Bb                    F       
The wide open spaces all around me

      G7             C7
 the moon and stars above

F      C7       F       F7     
Nobody seems to want me nor to 

Bb         Bbm      F
lend me a helping hand

    Bb              F             
I'm on my way from Frisco heading 

G7             C7
back to Dixie Land

F        C7      F     F7  Bb 
My pocketbook is empty my 

                  A7
heart is willed with pain

      Bb              F           
I'm a thousand miles away from 

   G7           C7    F
home just waiting for a train
