Start Jamming...
[F#]
[B]
Hear the holy men [E] say the world's in decay and there's a moral [F#] depression at hand.
Maybe I'm as depressed as all of the rest, but I'm doing the best that [B] I can.
I never reach in repentance, hear the passing down sentence, for my defense [E] can reply.
[F#] And I'm struck from their list, of those who are blessed, with a ticket to [B] heaven on high.
[E] And I'm a hobo on a freight [B] train to heaven, [F#] and I ain't got a ticket, [B] I'm just stealing a ride.
[E] I'm not welcome [B] aboard, I've trained to the Lord, [F#] but I'll tell you, you'll be glad [B] that I tried.
[E] [C#]
[F#]
[B] And I'll double or bear [E] them, to show me just [B] where, the proof is that [F#] I've gone astray.
All the wild oats I've sown, and the women I've known, I've loved in a most [B] heavenly way.
And I've harbored affection, for the wondrous selection, of the things of which [E] I'm not ashamed.
[F#] So when Gabriel cuts loose, I'll just hop that caboose, and I'll ride that [B] glory-bound train.
[E] And I'm a hobo [B] on a freight train to heaven, and I [F#] ain't got a ticket, [B] I'm just stealing a ride.
[E] I'm not welcome [B] aboard, I've trained to the Lord, [F#] but I'll tell you, you'll be glad [B] that I tried.
