From A Rolls To The Rails chords by Boxcar Willie

Chords with lyrics

G+G                C majorC    G+G
Once he lived like a king and he had everything

                  D7D7
All the world they say laid at his feet

     G+G            C majorC            G+G
Yet with all his wealth and fame he played that cheatin? game

            D7D7      G+G
And he wound up like a tramp on the street

        C majorC            G+G
He went from a Rolls to the rail from a mansion to dirty jails

                   D7D7
From a penthouse to the jungle by the track

   G+G            C majorC           G+G
From champagne to cheap wine right down to his last dime

              D7D7      G+G
And now all he owns is the cloths on his back




                C majorC      G+G
He drove a big fancy car and he smoked big cigars

                D7D7
Had everything that a man could own

     G+G          C majorC         G+G
But wild women and song soon his money was all gone

           D7D7   G+G
And now he rides in a boxcar alone



        C majorC            G+G
He went from a Rolls to the rail from a mansion to dirty jails

                   D7D7
From a penthouse to the jungle by the track

   G+G            C majorC           G+G
From champagne to cheap wine right down to his last dime

              D7D7      G+G
And now all he owns is the cloths on his back
