900 Miles From My Home

F

        F                 Bb
But I'm down here on this track
      Bb            F
Not a shirt upon my back
       F                  Bb          C C
I will sell to you this island that I own
       F                 Bb
Yes, I feed the mouths I took
       Bb                F
But as down winds on the brook
          Bb           C             F F
Lord, I'm nine hundred miles from my home

      F                  Bb
If my old lady, she says so
     Bb          F
I'll railroad no more
F              Bb                  C C
Sidetrack this engine, but I still roam
          F           Bb
Yes, I've given in my call
     Bb              F
I've gladly given it all
          Bb           C             F F
Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home

     F               Bb
If I get down by the bank
        Bb               F
And the river still does run
         F            Bb           C C
Yes, and everything I see turns to foam
    F                Bb
And even down on the ocean side
              Bb              F
Uh, she don't wade in just to bang my pride
          Bb           C             F F
Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home

    F              Bb
Oh, Mary don't you moan
          Bb          F
Don't you weep on the ground
    F              Bb                 C C
Oh, Mary don't you weep and don't you moan
     F             Bb
If I get myself in line
       Bb              F
I will be there in due time
          Bb           C             F
Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
