 C		  g		  f	   fm6

There was a chill that night in the hobo jungle

Am	   em7   ebm7  dm7	  g7

Over the train yard lay a smooth coat of frost

C		   g			f		  fm6

And although nobody here really knows where they're goin'

Am em7	 dm7	   f	 g7	 c

At the very same time  nobody's lost



C		 g/c	   f 		  fm6/ab

Then the fire went out and the night grew still

Am		  em	 em7 ebm7 dm7			g7

This old man lay frozen   on the coldcold ground

C		g/c	f			fm6/ab

He was a stray bird  and the road was his callin'

Am	em7	   dm7

Ridin' the rods

G7	    f	 c

Sleepin' under the stars

Am em7	    dm7 f	   g7   c

Playin' the odds   from a rollin' box car



C	   g/c	 f		   fm6/ab

She attended the fun'ral in the hobo jungle

Am		 em	em7 ebm7 dm7		    g7

Long were they lovers   though never could they wed

C		g/c	  f		   fm6/ab

Drifters and rounders	 and distant friends

Am 	em7	   dm7

Here I lie without anger or regret

F	    g7	c

I'm in no one's debt



D		 a/d

Man goes nowhere

G	   gm6/bb

Ev'rything comes like tomorrow

Bm 		  f#m	  f#m7 fm7 em7	   a7

But she took that last ride	   there by his side

D		 a/d	  g		   gm6/bb

He spent his whole life  pursuing the horizon

Bm f#m7	  em7

Ridin' the rods

A7	   g 	  d

Sleepin' under the stars

Bm f#m7    em7  g		a7	d

Playin' the odds	 from a rollin' box car
