Woody Guthrie – Hobos Lullaby chords

A tune from the Great Depression Era, as preformed by Woodie Guthrie


D                      G     Go to sleep, you weary hobo,
A7                         DLet the towns drift slowly by.
D              D7              EmListen to those steel rails hummin'?
A7              D  That's a hobo's lullaby

D                  GHo Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho Ho-Ho-Ho
A7           D        Ho Ha-Ho-Ho, Ho-Ho
D             D7             EmHo Ha-Ho Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho Ha-Ho Ho-Ho-Ho

D                     GDon't you worry 'bout tomorrow,
A7                    DLet tomorrow come and go;
D              D7             Em  Tonight you're in a nice warm box car,
A7                         D Safe from all the wind and snow.

D                             G I know the breakman cause you trouble;
A7                     DThey cause you trouble everywhere.
D         D7                Em    But when you die and go to heaven
A7                      DYou'll find no breakman there.


D                        G     So go to sleep, you weary hobo,
A7                         DLet the towns drift slowly by.
D             D7          EmListen to the steel rails humminnnnn'....
A7              D  That's a hobo's lullaby.


D         D7         EmThose steel rails humminnnnn'....
A7              D  That's a hobo's lullaby.
A7                     D  Yes, That's the hobo's lullaby.
