Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
As [C]I was out walking on
[F]a corner one [C]day,
I spied an old hobo, in a [G]doorway he lay.
His [C]face was all grounded in
[F]the cold sidewalk [C]floor
And I guess he'd been there
for a [G]whole night [C]or more.

[Verse 2]
[F]Only a hobo, but [C]one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to [G]sing his sad song
[F]Leavin' nobody to [C]carry him home
Only a hobo, but [G]one more is [C]gone

[Interlude 1]
[C]

[Verse 3]
A [C]blanket of newspaper
[F]covered his [C]head,
As the curb was his pillow,
the [G]street was his bed.
One [C]look at his face showed
the [F]hard road he'd [C]come
And a fistful of coins showed
the [G]money he [C]bummed.

[Verse 4]
[F]Only a hobo, but [C]one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to [G]sing his sad song
[F]Leavin' nobody to [C]carry him home
Only a hobo, but [G]one more is [C]gone

[Interlude 2]
[C]

[Verse 5]
Does it take [C]much of a man
to see his [F]whole life go [C]down,
To look up on the world from
a [G]hole in the ground,
To [C]wait for your future like
[F]a horse that's gone [C]lame,
To lie in the gutter and [G]die with [C]no name?

[Verse 6]
[F]Only a hobo, but [C]one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to [G]sing his sad song
[F]Leavin' nobody to [C]carry him home
Only a hobo, but [G]one more is [C]gone

[Outro 1]
