[Verse 1]
[C]Two[C#dim][G][Em][A][D][G]
hobos on a railroad line
[C]I'm getting ready [G]to go
Pulling on a bottle of burgundy wine
[A]I'm getting ready [D]to go
Well they [G]couldn't hear that
southbound whistle when
The [C]Dixie Flyer burned [A]around the bend
And it [G]punched their tickets
for the [E]promise land
[A]I'm getting [D]ready [G]to go

Sweet home, [C]loving heaven [G]heaven
Sweet home, can't ya [A]hear me singing [D]low

[C]I'm getting ready [G]to go
Singing to the corn like a heavenly choir

But the [G]old man's wife got
her [E]shotgun down
[A]I'm getting [D]ready [G]to go

[B]Listen here pal 'fore your road is run
And your [E]tightrope breaks in two
It's a [A]mighty big world

And it [D]keeps going round

May the Lord above take a liking to you
