_ I remember waking in the morning _ _ _ to the sound of a [A] rooster's crow. _
_ _ Mama cooking in the kitchen, _ _ and Arthur Godfrey on the [D] radio. _
_ _ Me and Dad were just like strangers.
_ _ We never did [A] see eye to eye.
It _ _ came to blows one Sunday morning.
_ _ So I packed my bags and I said [D] goodbye. _
_ But when you leave that way you can never [Em] go back. _
_ _ [A] The train won't run on a torn [D] up track. _
_ _ Sometimes I wish I'd [G] never owned, oh no.
[A] Cause when you leave that way you can never [D] go home. _
_ _ _ Then I met a girl in Knoxville.
_ _ Oh we set our wedding [A] day.
_ _ Left her standing at the altar with _ a baby [D] on the way. _
_ And when you leave that way you can never [Em] go back. _
_ _ [A] The train won't run on a torn [D] up track. _
_ _ Sometimes I wish I'd never owned, oh no.
[A] Cause when you leave that way you can never [D] go home.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] Lord I'd love [A] to see my mom [D] and daddy.
_ _ [G] And what I'd give [A] to hold that boy [Bm] of mine.
_ _ [G] I'd get down on [A] my knees and say [D] I'm sorry.
If [E] I could only go back one [A] more time.
_ _ [D] _
But I killed a man in Houston.
_ _ _ When he caught me with [A] his wife.
_ _ And I told the preacher man to leave me alone.
_ _ When he came to read [D] my rites.
And he said son, when you leave this way you can never [Em] come back.
_ _ [A] A soul won't roll on a [D] torn up track.
_ _ All through eternity [G] you'll roam it alone.
[A] Cause when you leave this way you can never [D] come home.
_ _ All through eternity [G] you'll roam [Em] it alone.
[A] Cause when you leave this way you can never [Bm] come home. _ _ _ _
