[Intro] D G D D A A7 D [Verse 1] D There was a time, G D D when lonely men would wander A Through this land, A7 D rolling aimlessly along A D G So many times, I've heard D D of their sad stories A A7 Written in the words D of dead men's songs [Verse 2] D Down through the years, G D many men have yearned for freedom A A7 D Some found it only on the open road A D G So many tears of blood D have fell around us A A7 'Cause you can't always do D what you were told

[Chorus]
D
Please tell me where,
G D
have all the hobos gone to
A A7
I see no fire burning, down
D A
by the rusty railroad tracks
D G
Could it be, that time
D
has gone and left them?
A A7
Tied up in life's eternal
D D
travelin' sack

[Parlando]
D G
Last Sunday night, I wrote
D
a letter to my loved one
D A
I signed my name and I knew that
A7 D
I'd stayed away, way too long
A D
There was a time when my
G
heart was free to wander
D
And I remember;
A A7 D
as I sing this hobo song
