Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm[A] ca[D]lling from the station and I
[G]haven't got much time to let you [D]know
Got a ticket for Missouri and there's
[G]things I need to say before I [A]go
If I [G]could I'd have you meet
me but I [D]don't see how I can
I don't have enough to
pay your fare
[G]

[Verse 2]
There's a factory in Columbus
hiring [D]now I understand
And they're [G]looking for
[A]an able bodied [D]man
You should meet some money in the
[G]letter that I mailed two days [D]ago
But when I wrote the letter saying [G]you
could come to me I didn't know
[A]

[Verse 3]
And [G]I was goin' to lose my
job in [D]such a little while
So now we're gonna have
to change our [G]plan
They may not hire me in Columbus
but I'm [D]pretty sure they will
Cause they're [G]looking for [A]an able

[Interlude 1]
bodied man
[D][G][A][D][Eb]

[Verse 4]
If [Eb]I'd've more education now I'd've
[Ab]made a better life for me and [Eb]you
But just simple manual labor is the
[Ab]only kind of work that I can [Bb]do
The bus is [Ab]loadin' for Missouri
so I [Eb]guess I'd better go
I'll call you just as soon as I can
[Ab]

[Verse 5]
I'll be sending you a ticket
cause I [Eb]think I'll get a job
If they're [Ab]looking for [Bb]an able bodied [Eb]man
and re[Ab]member I'm your [Bb]able bodied man

[Outro 1]
[Eb]
