Intro:
Em C G G x3
D C (silence)
Verse:
Em  C       G
Lay down my head by the wayside
Em  C       G
My worn out shoes
Em    C       G
Quite why she went I can't decide
D                     C
Yeah but I sure could use
Em  C        G
One plate of food steaming and hot
Em    C     G
Clean linen ironed
Em   C          G
On a fresh made bed but I ain't got
D         C     D         Em   C   G
One salty dime, one salty dime
Just close your eyes it won't take long
It won't hurt a bit
Telling myself I could be strong
Or some such brave bullshit
Trucks are roaring by I'm a red ghost
In their tail light gleam
I'm a tumbleweed, I'm a spit roast
Just turning in your flame
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Cars they sound like waves that are breaking
On some distant shore
I gazed so hard into the great aching sky
It seemed that I, I wasn't here no more
That my rushing blood was a river
My eyes two stars
My blowing hair all a quiver
A whispering field of grass
That murmurs as you pass
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
That whispers out your name
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
