[Intro]
C Cmaj7/B Am G F G
[Verse]
CMama I’ve been Amdriving a Fdark and icy Groad
The Cair is full of Amsnowflakes and the Fcab is full of Gcold
There’s Ccardboard in my Amwindow
And Fnothing in my Ghead
I want to Clay Cmaj7/Bdown,   Amdown, Gdown, Fdown in my own Gbed
[Verse]
CMama I’ve been Amtraveling from Ftown to border Gtown
CTrains and boats and Amlost my coat
And Flaid my passport Gdown
I Cmet a girl in AmMichigan, Fsomeday was all she Gsaid
I want to Clay Cmaj7/Bdown,   Amdown, Gdown, Fdown in my own Gbed
[Bridge]
Now FI am not a Gpraying man
But I Cstopped Cmaj7/Binto a  Amchurch
I Fgot down on my Gknees and I Cbegan Cmaj7/Bto      Amsearch
For Fsome kind of Gcompass, a Csignpost Cmaj7/Bgoing   Amforth
But the Fonly sign I Gsaw was a Fhighway headed Gnorth
[Verse]
CMama I’ve been Amsliding, it’s Ffreezing on the Gbridge
CThere’s frost on every Amwindow
And a Fcoyote on the Gridge
CI’m pulling off in AmAlbertville to Ftry and clear my Ghead
I want to Clay Cmaj7/Bdown,   Amdown, Gdown, Fdown in my own Gbed
I want to Clay Cmaj7/Bdown,   Amdown, Gdown, Fdown in my own Gbed
FDown in my own Gbed
F(rGepeat and fade)
