      D             G                                   D 
I'm headed for the lowlands would you please direct my way 
                      A                            Bm 
The train is leaving shortly there's no time for delay 
     D                 G                          D 
She told me shd'd be waiting I'm not so sure she is 
                        A                               Bm 
I heard that there's another man who claims that she is his

The lowlands were my home when I was but a child

[Verso 2]
 
     D                 G                        D 
I remember one summer day the clouds began to build 
                  A                                  Bm 
We gathered the cattle that had scattered cross the fields 
          D          G                          D 
Well it started to rain and continued several days 
                A                               Bm 
The river overflowed and the crops all went to waste

[Verso 3]
 
     D                  G                               D 
You know that I'm no failure through my victories are few 
                A                               Bm 
I'm trying my best but there's too much here to do 
      D                 G                        D 
That girl I love once told me I made her feel secure 
                           A                           Bm 
It's hard to think I've been replaced. Nothing does endure.
