                              HOBO
                        THE STONE PONEYS
                       ft. LINDA RONSTADT
 
CAPO: 4th FRET
 
INTRO:
G  C
 
VERSE:
G                     C
I lit my purest candle close to my
G                      C
 Window hoping it would catch the eye
G                    C
 Of any vagabond that passed it by
 
Am       G          C        G   G
  And I waited in my lonely house
 
 
VERSE:
 G                       C
Before he came I felt him drawing near
 G                           C
And as he neared I felt thee ancient fear
 G                      C
That he had come to my door and jeer
 
Am       G          C          G   G
  And I waited in my fleeting house
 
 
CHORUS:
D                    C     Em      C
 Tell me stories, I called to the hobo
 D                 C     Em      C
Stories of old, I smiled to the hobo
 D                 C   Em      C   Am
Storie of cold, I wept to the hobo
Am                   C          G   G
As he stood before my fleeting house
 
 
VERSE:
G                           C
No, said the hobo, no more tales of time
 G                        C
Don't ask me now to wash a-way the grime
G                           C
I can't come in for it's too high a climb
 
Am                       C           G
  And he walked away from my lonely house
 
 
CHORUS:
D                      C       Em      C
 Then you be damned I screamed to the hobo
 D                 C    Em      C
Turn into stone I cried to the hobo
 D                C    Em      C
Leave me alone I knelt to the hobo
 
Am                       C             G   G
  And he walked away from my fleeting house
 
 
OUTRO:
G                     C
I lit my purest candle close to my
G                      C
 Window hoping it would catch the eye
G                     C
 Of any vagabond who passed it by
 
Am                  C          G   G  D  C Em
  And I waited in my fleeting house
