     C                        F
I'll not be a stranger when I get to that city;
      C                        G
I'm acquainted with folks over there.
            C
There'll be friends there to greet me,
            F
There'll be loved ones to meet me
       C             G         C
At the gates of that city four square.

            G
Through the years, through the tears,
        C
They've gone one by one.
            G
But they'll wait at the gate
  C
Until my race is run.
     C                        F

    C                F            C
I'm glad I've got to see you once again
               G                     C
although we're through, I still love you
  C               F               C
I guess I have to call you just a friend
        G                    C
Someone new has just stepped in

  G                                 C
I try to tell my heart that I don't need you
G                            C
But I know that it is just a lie
    C              F                   C
And if someday his love should prove untrue
         G                          C

And if I don't be there by morning
She'll know that I
must have gone the other way.

G
I am the Man, Thomas

I am the Man

Look at these nail scars
D          G
Here in my hand

G
They drove me up the hill, Thomas

I am the Man

They made me carry the cross, Thomas
D        G
I am the Man

I am the Man, Thomas
I am the Man
Look at these nail scars
Here in my hand

They crowned my head with thorns, Thomas
I am the Man
They nailed me to the cross, Thomas
I am the Man

I am the Man, Thomas
I am the Man
Look at these nail scars
Here in my hand

C                   F                          C
I ain't got no home, I'm just a-ramblin' 'round,
C                                  D               G
A hard working ramblin' man, and I go from town to town.
C                   F
police make it hard  wherever I may go
    C                           G        C
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

[C          F  C            F        C]
I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

I was farmin' on the shares, always I was poor;

Intro:

    E                                   B
Oh, come hear my story, I'll tell it to you
                                        E
My heart is all broken, I'm sad and I'm blue
                                        B
I just lost my darling, her name was La La
                                    E
As pretty as a picture and twice as fair.

     E                            B
Hey! La La, Oh! La La, my true La La
                                  E
Oh La La, La La La, my true La La.

                           C
Take the ribbons from your hair
                         F
Shake it lose and let it fall
                         G
Lay it soft against your skin
                        C
Like the shadows on the wall

Come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning bright
All I'm taking is your time
Help me make it through the night

                              F
I don't care what's right or wrong
                    C
I don't try to understand
                     D
Let the devil take tomorrow
