Verse II On the last day of spring I first saw the sea A poor boy with good luck on my side Ready for riches I rolled up my sleeve And took my first step Down my life
CFBbEb Had my wallet same old pocket CFBbEb Sixteen dollars, brand new shoes CFBbEb Empty bottles, sad turned daughters CFBbEbFBb What's a country boy to do
GD/F# Tell dear mother that I miss her F But things are different now C There's nothing I can do Eb Your dark haired son is now long gone GD Remember me when you stare At the moon
Verse III I've broken my heart diamonds and gold Through scandal, through madness, through cold All I have left is this grey in my beard This mountain and the stories that I've told
