Chris Ledoux, Ragged Ol Hobo Tabs

(D) Rain had grounded (D7) all the planes
At the (G) airport in Louisville (D) Kentucky
So I bought me a railroad (D7) ticket
Had to (G) close a deal in New (D) Orleans
When a (G) hobo at the track
Said he's gona ride the rail to (G7) Ari (D) zona  
I had to (Em) fight the (G) tears 
That wailed up in (A7) me

Cause a (Em) ragged ol' (G) hobo
Is really better off than (D) me
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams

(D) Got a new car and  a (D7) house 
And a good ol (G) job in the suburbs of St. (D) Louie
And the woman in the (D7) gateway 
To the (G) west has made me everything I (D) am
But (G) this three piece suit is gettin tight
The walls are closin in down at (G7) the (D) office 
Lord I've (Em) been to (G) cautious
With all my best laid (A7)plans

Cause a (Em) ragged ol (G) hobo 
Is really better off than (D) me 
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams

(D) He said son you ought (D7) to come along
And (G) watch the eagles fly in (D) Arizona
You'll never see an (D7) eagle fly 
With (G) neon light reflecting off (D) wings
As he (G) climbed into the box car
His words echoed back like crashin (G7) thun (D) der 
Lord if (Em) I was (G) younger
I'd ride me a different (A7) train

Cause a (Em) ragged ol (G) hobo 
Is really better off than (D) me
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams
