[C]When a [Dm] man [G7] leaves his [C] home
And walks [Dm] out in this [G7] world[C] alone
Leaves [Dm] behind all the [G7] friends that he's [C] known[Am]
Then a [D7] man is [G7] on his [C] own
I walk [Dm] through the [G7] night through the [C] cold
And the [Dm] sight of a [G7] tombstone chills my [C] soul
My [Dm] mother's name is [G7] carved there in the [C] stone
[Am]I would have [D7] been here long [G7] before if I had [C] known
I don't [Dm] know where [G7] my life's road will [C] end
This [Dm] guitar is [G7] my only true [C] friend
It [Dm] takes the place of [G7] love I've never [C] known[Am]
It [D7] reminds me that [G7] I am on my [C] own
When a [Dm] man [G7] leaves his [C] home
And walks [Dm] out in this [G7] world [C] alone
Leaves [Dm] behind all the [G7] friends that he's [C] known[Am]
Then a [D7] man is [G7] on his [C] own[Am]
Then a [D7] man is [G7] on his [C] own
And walks [Dm] out in this [G7] world[C] alone
Leaves [Dm] behind all the [G7] friends that he's [C] known[Am]
Then a [D7] man is [G7] on his [C] own
I walk [Dm] through the [G7] night through the [C] cold
And the [Dm] sight of a [G7] tombstone chills my [C] soul
My [Dm] mother's name is [G7] carved there in the [C] stone
[Am]I would have [D7] been here long [G7] before if I had [C] known
I don't [Dm] know where [G7] my life's road will [C] end
This [Dm] guitar is [G7] my only true [C] friend
It [Dm] takes the place of [G7] love I've never [C] known[Am]
It [D7] reminds me that [G7] I am on my [C] own
When a [Dm] man [G7] leaves his [C] home
And walks [Dm] out in this [G7] world [C] alone
Leaves [Dm] behind all the [G7] friends that he's [C] known[Am]
Then a [D7] man is [G7] on his [C] own[Am]
Then a [D7] man is [G7] on his [C] own
