[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
Some living, [C]no one time for giving,
[F]I ain't got a dim[C]e,
Winds are blowing, wheat fields are growing,
[D]bit none of it's min[G]e,[C]
Gets so I [F]just watch [C]people go by,
[F]looking away,
[Em]I te[F]ll you I[G]'m almos[C]t throug[Am]h,
I'd [F]hate to see an[G]other day.

[Interlude 1]
[C]

[Verse 2]
Easy lady, I [C]know you're always ready,
[F]selling your tim[C]e,
My last dollar, I pinched it 'til it hollered
[D]and bought me some win[G]e.
[C]I'm past caring, it's all I got for sharing,
[F]so if you're for fre[Em]e
[F]I tell y[G]ou, I'm a[C]lmost t[Am]hrough,
I'm [F]tired as [G]a man can [C]be.

[Verse 3]
[Chorus] I want to [F]go
home [Em]to the Maker,[Am]
[F]hom[Em]e to the[Am] Chief,
The [F]Holy [Em]Word [Am]made me sure my wor
[D]ried mind would [G]find relief;
I'm [Em]going [F]through [Em]life like a Pil[Am]grim,
[F]lost in [Em]a st[Am]orm;
With [F]winds that [Em]blow to [Am]make me cold,
but the [F]Holy Body [G]keeps me warm.

[Interlude 2]
[C][F][C]

[Verse 4]
Some morning I'd [C]like to see me warming
[F]my feet by a f[C]ire,[G][C]
Eggs and bacon, cof[F]fee [C]I'd be making,
[D]couldn't be [G]finer!
[C]A good living,
extra bit [F]forgiving someone like [Em]me,
[F]I tell [G]you I'm [C]almost [Am]through. I'm tired[F] as a ma[G]n[C][F][Em][Am][C][F][Em]
[Am][F][Em][Am][D][G][F][Em][Am][F]
[Em]can [Am]be.[F][Em][Am]
