Capo 2nd fret Intro: | C | G | C | C |
I was ridiCn' Number Nine, headin' south from Caro-linFe. C I heard that lone - some whGistle blow. C I got in trouble, had to roam. I left my gal; I left my home.F C I heard that lone - some wGhistle blow. C Just a kidF actin' smart, I went and broke my darlinC's heart. I guess I was too young to know. G They took me off in GeorCgia main, locked me to a ball and chain. F C I heard that lone - some wGhistle blow. C
Interlude: | C | G | C | C |
All a-lonCe I bare the shame. I'm a number, not a naFme. C I heard that lone - some wGhistle blow. C All I do is sit and cry when that ev'ning train goesF by. C I heard that lone - some wGhistle blow. C I'll be loFcked here in this cell till my body's just a Cshell, And my hair turns whiter than snow. G I'll never see Cthat gal of mine. I'm in Georgia, doin' tFime. C I heard that lone - some wGhistle blow. C
