In a lonely shack by a railroad track

He spent his younger days
      C

Made him a slave to his wand'ring ways

Verse 2:
     C
Oh I met him there in a border town
C
He vowed we'd never part
        C
Tho' he tried so hard to settle down
         G                  C
Now I'm alone with a broken heart


Chorus:

And he was born the next of kin
            C          F       C
The next of kin to the wayward wind
                C          F       C
Oh, the next of kin to the wayward wind
