[C#]
Now Matthew was a [Fm] country [A#m] boy [B] until [F#] one day [C#] he found
[F#] [C#] That cheating folks was [Fm] [A#m] easier than [B]
plowing [F#] his [C#] daddy's ground
He left his home back in [A#m] Ohio [B] bound for [F#]
[C#] Chicago's town
[F#] [C#] He crossed Big Jim and [Cm] turned [A#m] his back [F#] a bullet [B] cut him [F#] down
[G#] And as he lay [Fm] there dying [D#m] he said, [A#m] will I see my [D#] Ohio?

[F#] Now [C#] Jim [F#] McCall he [C#] was meek and [A#m] small [B] and to [F#] become a [C#] man
He'd have to build himself [A#m] up tall [B] with fancy [F#] hopes [C#] and plans
He threw some stones at all [A#m] his friends [B] and he got [F#] himself [C#] these things
His children left him [Fm] and he [A#m] sneered, [F#] that's what my [B] kindness [F#] brings
[G#] And on the [F#] south [C#] side he [F#] got dumb, [A#m] he asked me [D] where [D#] to go
[F#] In my [C#] reply [D#m] I lied a [C#] bit [B] and said [F#] I did not [C#]
