Intro:  

C            F 
 Lay me down easy 
G            C 
 Lay me down hard 
                        F 
 Light my cigarette and make my bed 
G                      C 
 Somewhere beneath the stars 


verse 1 

C                   F 
 I was born a blue child 
G                    C 
 Of the wild western sky 
                       F 
 But I left my prairie home 
G                      C 
 Found a boxcar for to ride 
                      F 
 Now I'm way down in Okema 
G                        C 
 Earning blisters on my feet 
                       F 
 With my guitar and my buck knife 
G                              C 
 Thumbing down Woody Guthrie Street 


C F Lay me down easy G C Lay me down hard F Light my cigarette and make my bed G C Somewhere beneath the stars F Don't look for me in glory G C Don't look for me below F 'Cause I'll be riding on that freight G C Where the souls of ramblers go
Instrumental C - F - G - C verse 2 C F And there's a sadness that follows G C Most everywhere I roam F You can see it on my smile G C You can smell it on my clothes F Sometimes all that running G C It never lasts too long F So keep me good and loaded G C And I'll keep singing songs
C F Lay me down easy G C Lay me down hard F Light my cigarette and make my bed G C Somewhere beneath the stars F Don't look for me in glory G C Don't look for me below F 'Cause I'll be riding on that freight G C Where the souls of ramblers go
Instrumental C - F - G - C verse 3 C F If I don't leave here tomorrow G C I believe I'll blow out my brains F But either way there'll be sorrow G C And you won't be seeing me again
C F Lay me down easy G C Lay me down hard F Light my cigarette and make my bed G C Somewhere beneath the stars F Don't look for me in glory G C Don't look for me below F 'Cause I'll be riding on that freight G C Where the souls of ramblers go
