Tom: E major
Verse 1
D
G
Well, his daddy was an honest man
D
Just a red dirt Georgia farmer
His mama lived her short life
A
Havin' kids and bailin' hay
G
D
And an aching side to wander
So he jumped a freight and
Now the cold nights had no pity
G
D
On that way across Georgia, farm boy
Most days he went hungry
D
He met a girl known on the Strip
G
D
San Francisco's Mabel Joy
Destitution's child
Laughter found their mornings,
A
it brought a meaning to his life
G
On the night before she left, sleep came
D
And left that way across country boy
With dreams of Georgia cotton
A
D
And a California wife
G
Sunday morning found him standing
D
Neath a red light at her door
Went a right cross and him reeling
A
Put him face down on the floor
F#m
G
In place of Mabel Joy
Who growled, your Georgia neck is red
C
G
A
D
But, sonny, you're still green
He turned twenty -one
G
D
In a grey rock federal prison
The old judge had no mercy
A
on that way -crossed country boy
D
Staring at those four gray walls
G
D
In silence he would listen
To that midnight freight he knew
C
G
A
could take him back to Mabel Joe
F#m
G
Sunday morning found him lying
D
beneath the red light at her door
With a bullet in his side, he cried
A
Have you seen Mabel Jones?
G
Stunned and shaken, someone said
D
Son, she don't live here no more
She left this house four years ago
C
G
A
They say she's looking for some Georgia
