Tom T. Hall - Homecoming, аккорды

C
                                                 
I guess I should have written dad to let you know 
                   
C7
  
that I was coming home 
 
F
  
But I've been gone so many years I didn't realize you had a phone 
  
C
                                                           
I saw your cattle coming in and boy they're looking mighty fat
       
C7
   
and slick 
  
F
                                  
G7
      
I saw Fred at the service station he told me 
                        
C
  
that his wife was awful sick 
 
You heard my record on the radio oh well 
                    
C7
  
it's just another song 
 
F
  
But I've got a hit recorded dad it'll be out 
on the market 'fore too long 
   
C
                                                    
Oh I got this ring in Mexico you know it didn't cost me 
           
C7
  
quite a bunch 
     
F
                                      
G7
     
When you're in the business that I'm in the people 
                     
C
  
call it putting up a front 
 
I know I've lost a little weight 
                                
C7
  
and I guess I'm a looking kinda pale 
 
F
  
If you didn't know me better Dad you'd think 
that I've just gotten out of jail 
   
C
                                              
No we don't ever call 'em beer joints night clubs 
                        
C7
  
are the places where I work 
    
F
                             
G7
   
You meet a lotta people there but no 
                                 
C
  
there ain't much chance of getting hurt 
 
I'm sorry that I couldn't be here with you all 
                   
C7
  
when momma passed away 
 
F
  
I was on the road and when they came 
and told me it was just too late 
  
C
                                     
I drove by the grave to see her and boy 
                          
C7
  
that really is a pretty stone 
    
F
                                    
G7
     
I'm glad that Fred and Jan are here it's better 
                    
C
  
than you being here alone 
 
I knew you's gonna ask me who the lady 
                         
C7
  
is who's sleeping in the car 
 
F
  
That's just the girl that works for me 
and man she plays a pretty mean guitar 
   
C
                                               
We worked in San Antone last night she didn't even 
                   
C7
  
have the time to dress 
    
C
                                          
G7
    
She drove me in from Nashville and to tell the truth 
                      
C
  
I guess she needs the rest 
 
Well dad I gotta go we got a dance to work 
                     
C7

F

and I promise you I'll write 
    
C
                               
Now you be good and don't be chasing
