Alone And Broke In Birmingham

(início)

C
Nobody knows how blue I am
                   G7
Alone and broke in Birmingham
G7
Washin' dishes for a bite to eat
                     C
Sleepin' nights on a rundown street
C
My only shoes are paper thin
                            F
I’ve hawked my clothes everywhere I've been
                        C
I’m down to nothin' and here I am
G7                 C
Alone and broke in Birmingham
C
Why did I leave a good home town
                         G7
To ride the freights and bum around
G7
The girl that's waiting is mighty sweet
                          C
But I can't wait till I'm on my feet
C
Down on my luck but I still got my pride
                        F
Can't find a job but oh how I've tried
                         C
Ain't got the price of a telegram
G7                 C
Alone and broke in Birmingham
C
I've heard a thousand no's and they all hurt
                     G7
Who wants a man in a dirty shirt
G7
I can't keep going with this heavy load
                           C
Sometimes I think it's the end of the road
C
A man's got hope though he's not got a dime
                         F
He keeps a livin' just a breath at a time
                      C
I can't wait till I'm out of this jam
G7                 C
Alone and broke in Birmingham
G7                 C
Alone and broke in Birmingham
