verse 1 

         C                                         
It was a dark rainy night down in Texas 
                                      Am     
I believe the year was nineteen-sixty-two 
       F                        C                
When I packed up all my rags in one little bag 
                  G7          C       
I started walking holes in my shoes 

C I could hear the engineer's lonesome whistle Am And old Hank he was singing the blues F C When I walked out the door said I won't be back no more G7 C Started walking holes in my shoes
Instrumental break verse 2 C Well it's been thirty years since I left her Am Since I left well I ain't had no news F C Listen my friends I'd do it all again G7 C Walk another hole in my shoes
C I could hear the engineer's lonesome whistle Am And old Hank he was singing the blues F C When I walked out the door said I won't be back no more G7 C Started walking holes in my shoes
Instrumental break verse 3 C Well sometimes I still miss that woman Am Like tonight my mind's on the blues F C Was a long time ago I became a hobo G7 C Started walking holes in my shoes
C I could hear the engineer's lonesome whistle Am And old Hank he was singing the blues F C When I walked out the door said I won't be back no more G7 C Started walking holes in my shoes
