Lyrics:
AWatch my back and light my way Dmaj7
My traveling sFmtar, my traveliEng star A
AWatch over all of those born St. Christopher's Day Dmaj7
Old road dogFm, young ruEnaway A
A Asus4 Dmaj7
They hunger for home but they cannot stay
They wait by the dDmoor
Fm
They stand and they stare
Dmaj7
They're already out of there
Fm E A
They're already out of there
AMy daddy used to ride the railsDmaj7
So they sFmay, so thEey saAy
ASoft as smoke and as tough as nails Dmaj7
Boxcar JoFmnes, old walEking man A
A Asus4 Dmaj7
Coming back home was like going to jail
The sheets and the bDmlankets and babies and Fmall
No he never did come back hDmaj7ome
