Verse 1
Am
This shack is falling in
F
and your wrists are getting thin
C
Sweetheart, you don't deserve
E
the kind of life I put you in
Am
But it's hard to draw a page
C

when my papers always say
C
That I took a loaf of bread
E
from the grocery store one day
Am
C
For my time behind bars,
F
you have to wear the scars
C
When people down the road
E
can drive ten thousand dollar cars
Am
So it's a long, long hard way
C
F
to the east Colorado now
C
If I make it to St. Louis,
E
I'll send you a telegram
Am
If I don't make it at all,
C
F
you'll know why I didn't call
C
Just kiss the baby for me
E
and come see my grave next

C
They'll make you feel so useless

If a soul -searching beggar

who'll give you all the things I never could
