[Intro]
| E | E7 | A | - |
A7 E7
We left our southern homes
E7 E+ A
And wandered north to roam
A E7 A E7 E E+
Like birds, went seekin' a brand new field of corn
A E7
We don't know why we are here
A A7 D
But we're up here just the same
D Dm A F#7
And we are just the lonesomest
B7 E7
Girls that's ever born
A E7
Some of these days we are going far away
E7 A
Some of these days we are going far away
A A7 D Dm
Where we have got a lot of friends
A E7 A E7
And don't have no roof rent to pay
A E7
Oh, there'll come a day when from us you'll here no news
E7 E7 A
Oh, there'll come a day when from us you'll here no news
A A7 D A
Then you will know that we have died from
E7 A
Those lonesome far away blues
