Bob Dylan – Only A Hobo

  G                       C      G
As I was out walking on a corner one day 
  G                  D
I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he lay 
  G                              C             G
His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor 
  G                                 D           G
And I guess he’d been there for the whole night or more 
 
  C         G
Only a hobo, but one more is gone 
  G            D
Leavin’ nobody to sing his sad song 
  G            C            G
Leavin’ nobody to carry him home 
 G           D            G
Only a hobo, but one more is gone 
 
  G                    C           G
А blanket of newspaper covered his head 
  G                         D
As the curb was his pillow, the street was his bed 
  G                         C                C
One look at his face showed the hard road he’d come 
  G                               D        G
And a fistful of coins showed the money he bummed 
 
  C         G
Only a hobo, but one more is gone 
  G            D
Leavin’ nobody to sing his sad song 
  G            C            G
Leavin’ nobody to carry him home 
 G           D            G
Only a hobo, but one more is gone 
 
  G                               C              G
Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down 
  G                            D
To look up on the world from a hole in the ground 
  G                            C                 G
To wait for your future like a horse that’s gone lame 
  G                      D           G
To lie in the gutter and die with no name? 
 
  C         G
Only a hobo, but one more is gone 
  G            D
Leavin’ nobody to sing his sad song 
  G            C            G
Leavin’ nobody to carry him home 
 G           D            G
Only a hobo, but one more is gone
