D
Well, I was standing on a corner
At a flat-ironed building in Nashville, North Carolina
G
Waiting for a woman that was putting me down
D A D
And leaving me way behind and the wind was cold, the wind blew cold
I walked around the corner
To have a cup of coffee and I met a good buddy instead
G
We both crossed the river for a shot of white lightning
D A D
And it moves me out of my head and the wind was cold, the wind blew
cold
G
I can't forget that lonesome day
A D
Nothing seemed to go my way
G
I got put down by the woman I love
D A D
And the wind blew cold, Lord, Lord, the wind blew cold
Started walking and I thumbed across
The Hotspring Mountains there in Knoxville, Tennessee
G
I hear a freight train was a-landing before the wind blow
D A D
And no one talking to me and the wind was cold, the wind blew cold
A couple of fellows and a log truck moving
Took me to the Tennessee line
G
We got to talking and a-drinking over troubles
D A D
On a bottle of homemade wine and the wind was cold, the wind blew cold
G
I can't forget that lonesome day
A D
Nothing seemed to go my way
G
I got put down by the woman I love
D A D
And the wind blew cold, Lord, Lord, the wind blew cold
D
And the wind blew cold
A D
Lord, Lord, the wind blew cold
