[Verse]
         C    F     C          G
I well I wish I was drunk in Havana
  Am   C            F     G
I wish I was at the Mardi Gras
  C      F      C          G
I wish I had me two pretty ladies
     Am        C           F             G
On a buckboard down on the South Georgia farm
 
 
[Chorus]
F                                C
Run, run, run were the coyotes roam
F
Never to return to the transit road
C                           G       C
That's where they bury the American dead
Am                          G       C
That's where they bury the American dead
 
 
[Verse 2]
       C    F     C           G
Well I wish I had one drop of liquor
     Am          C            F          G
That runs like a river in the cottonwood hills
C            F       C               G
Making me forget the maggots and the chiggers
    Am               C              F         G
I'd like to spend an evening with a moonshine still
 
 
[Chorus]
F                                     C
Run, run, run, where the wild wind blows
F
Never to return to the transit road
C                             G         C
I could drink a hatful of the Tennessee rain
Am                            G         C
I could drink a hatful of the Tennessee rain

F       C       F
C                             G         C
I could drink a hatful of the Tennessee rain
Am                            G         C
I could drink a hatful of the Tennessee rain

       C    F C     G
Well I wish I was a helmsman on a
Am      C             F       G
Clipper bound for the Spanish main
C   F     C     G
Breathing fancy breezes
Am     C      F     G
Gold Jamaican sugar cane.     Run

F                                C
Run, run, where the wild wind blows

Never to return to the transit road
C                             G         C
I could drink a hatful of the Tennessee rain
Am                            G         C
