D MajorD           G+G
Go to sleep, you weary hobo,
A7A7             D MajorD
Let the towns drift slowly by.
D MajorD       D7D7       E minorEm
Listen to those steel rails hummin'?
A7A7       D MajorD
That's a hobo's lullaby

D MajorD         G+G
Ho Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho Ho-Ho-Ho
A7A7      D MajorD
Ho Ha-Ho-Ho, Ho-Ho
D MajorD       D7D7       E minorEm
Ho Ha-Ho Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho Ha-Ho Ho-Ho-Ho

D MajorD           G+G
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow,
A7A7          D MajorD
Let tomorrow come and go;
D MajorD       D7D7       E minorEm
Tonight you're in a nice warm box car,
A7A7             D MajorD
Safe from all the wind and snow.

D MajorD               G+G
I know the breakman cause you trouble;
A7A7           D MajorD
They cause you trouble everywhere.
D MajorD     D7D7        E minorEm
But when you die and go to heaven
A7A7           D MajorD
You'll find no breakman there.


D MajorD            G+G
So go to sleep, you weary hobo,
A7A7             D MajorD
Let the towns drift slowly by.
D MajorD       D7D7     E minorEm
Listen to the steel rails humminnnnn'....
A7A7       D MajorD
That's a hobo's lullaby.


D MajorD     D7D7     E minorEm
Those steel rails humminnnnn'....
A7A7       D MajorD
That's a hobo's lullaby.
A7A7           D MajorD
Yes, That's the hobo's lullaby.
