[Verse 1]

         FF     C majorC    FF
In an Appalachian, Greyhound station
       C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You sit there waiting, in a family way
         FF      C majorC     FF
"Goodbye brother, Tell Mom I love her

"Tell all the others, I'll write someday"

[Chorus]

        FF         C majorC
From a teenage lover, to an unwed mother
                 G+G
Head under covers, like some bad dream
      C majorC    FF       C majorC     FF
While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered
       C majorC   G+G        C majorC
They run like water, from a mountain stream

Someone's children, out having children
        C majorC    G+G   C majorC
In a grey stone building, all alone
