Titus Andronicus - Only a Hobo lyrics

[Titus Andronicus - Only a Hobo lyrics]

As I was out walking on a corner one day
I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he lay
His face was all grounded in
The cold sidewalk floor
And I guess he'd been there for
The whole night or more

He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Leaving nobody to sing his sad song
Leaving nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone

(One chord for a while okay?)

(Now listen here)
A blanket of newspaper covered his head
As the step was his pillow
The street was his bed
One look at his face showed
The hard road he’d come (Yes it did)
(Anybody could tell)


And a fistful of coins showed
The money he bummed

He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Leaving nobody to sing his sad song
Leaving nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
(Give me that one chord)
(Play the thing now)

Does it take much of a man to
See his whole life go down
(Or a woman, or a girl
Or anyone in the world)
To look up on the world from
A hole in the ground
To wait for your future like
A horse that's gone lame
To lie in the gutter and die with no name

He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Leaving nobody to sing his sad song
Leaving nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone

Only, only a hobo, but one more is gone

(Thank you very much)
(We're gonna take a little ten minute break)
