Am [Verse 1] Am I stood in line and I left my name G Am took about six hours or so Am Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game G Am said they'd let me know Dm I put in my time till the Pocono line Am Dm shut down two years ago Am I was staying at the mission till I met Marie G Am now I can't stay there no more [Verse 2] Am Fella 'cross town said he's lookin' for a man G Am to move some old cars around Am maybe me and Marie could find a burned-out van G Am and do a little settlin' down Dm Aw, but I'm just dreamin', I ain't got no ride Am Dm and the junkyard's a pretty good ways Am that job's about a half week old besides G Am it'd be gone now anyway [Verse 3] Am Unemployment said I got no more checks G Am and they showed me to the hall Am my brother died in Georgia some time ago G Am I got no one left to call Dm Summer wasn't bad below the bridge Am Dm a little short on food that's all Am Now I gotta get Marie some kind of coat G Am we're headed down into fall [Verse 4] Am I used to play the mouth harp pretty good G Am hustled up a little dough Am but I got drunk and I woke up rolled G Am a couple of months ago Dm they got my harp and they got my dollar Am Dm them low life so and so's Am harps cost money and I ain't got it G Am it's my own fault I suppose [Verse 5] Am The Pocono's down but the Chesapeak's runnin' G Am two freights everyday Am if it was just me I'd be headed south G Am but Marie can't catch no train Dm She's got some pain and she thinks it's a baby, Am Dm says we gotta wait and see Am in my heart I know it's a little boy G Am hope he don't end up like me [Verse 6] Am Well, the man's still grinnin' says he lost my file G Am I gotta stand in line again Am I want to kill him but I just say no G Am I had enough of that line my friend Dm I head back to the bridge, its getting kinda cold Am Dm I'm feelin' too low down to lie Am I guess I'll just tell Marie the truth G Am hope she don't break down and cry [Verse 7] Am Marie she didn't wake up this morning G Am she didn't even try Am she just rolled over and went to heaven G Am my little boy safe inside Dm I laid them in the sun where somebody'd find them Am Dm caught a Chesapeak on the fly Am Marie will know I'm headed south G Am so's to meet me by and by Am Marie will know I'm headed south G Am so's to meet me by and by
