Well I. . .
        E
Well, I walked all night long
                       A   E   A E
Hearin' them church bells toll
       A
Yes, I walked all night long
                               E     A E
Listening to them church bells toll

Either someone needing mercy
A                             E
 might be somethin' I've done wrong.


Well, your friends come by for you
I don't know what to say
Well, your friends come by for you
I don't know what to say
I just can't face to tell 'em
Honey you just went away.

The children cry for mother
I tell 'em, "Mother took a trip.''
Well, the children cry for mother
I tell 'em, "Mother took a trip.''
Well, I walk on pins and needles
I hope my tongue don't slip.

Well, I gaze at passing strangers
In case I might see you
Yes, I gaze at passing strangers
In case I might see you
But the sun goes around the heavens
And another day just drives on through.

Way out in the distance
I know you're with some other man
Way out in the distance
I know you're with some other man
But that's all right, baby
You know I always understand.

Call girls in the doorway
All givin' me the eye
Call girls in the doorway
All givin' me the eye
But my heart's just not in it
I might as well pass right on by.

My ears are ringin'
Ringin' like empty shells
My ears are ringin'
Ringin' like empty shells
Well, it can't be no guitar player
