verse 1 

C                  G 
This is the last weary road 
       C           
I'm gonna travel 
C/B      Am        C/B 
The last weary night 
        F 
In a cheep hotel 
C                           G 
And it is hard to kneel down and pray 
F                       Dm 
And thank the lord for another day 
 C                   G 
When the mornin' only means 
             F 
You missed another meal 


C          G 
Go tell my mama 
                        F 
That i was wrong to break her heart 
C        G 
Go tell my papa 
        Am           Dm              G 
That he was right right from the start 
                F                 
And go tell them patron saints 
          G 
That they forgot                                   
C              C/B          Am 
To watch out for where i roamed 
            F 
And go tell the savior 
G         C 
I'm coming home 


verse 2 

C                   
Well i must admit 
        G                   C 
It was my childhood dream to travel 
C/B                       Am        
From the stories that you hear 
     C/B           F 
Of wine, women and song 
C                           G 
But if the wine don't blur your eyes 
F                       Dm 
The women might make you realize 
 C                            G 
That they're takin' off their clothes 
            F 
Just to put you on 


C          G 
Go tell my mama 
                        F 
That i was wrong to break her heart 
C        G 
Go tell my papa 
        Am           Dm              G 
That he was right right from the start 
                F                 
And go tell them patron saints 
          G 
That they forgot                                   
C              C/B          Am 
To watch out for where i roamed 
            F 
And go tell the savior 
G         C 
I'm coming home

This is the last weary road 
       C           
I'm gonna travel 
C/B      Am      C/B 
The last weary night 
        F 
In a cheap hotel 
C                         G 
And i'm feelin' all i've got 
F                       Dm 
Are my feelings all tied up in knots 
 C                   G 
And the mornin' just might find me 
             F 
Halfway to hell 


C          G 
Go tell my mama 
                        F 
That i was wrong to break her heart

And go tell them patron saints 
          G 
That they forgot                                   
C              C/B          Am 
To watch out for where i roamed 
            F 
And go tell the savior 
G         C 
I'm coming home
