     Oh! 

 A5                          C5   D5 
Countryman, friend, lend me your ears 
      A5                         C5 G5 
I'll tell you a tale of fifteen years 
A5                       C5 D5 
I'm an old man but not forlorn 
   A5                             C5 G5 
I wanna see the city where I was born 
A5                         C5   D5 
I got a feeling I can't understand 
   A5                       C5 G5 
I wanna get back to my homeland 
A5                                   C5 D5 
I ain't got no money, I ain't got a cent 
   A5                          C5   G5 
I gotta get on that train, so help me
