Em        D            C        G 
Lost John sittin' on a railroad track 
??                Am 
Something's out of wack 
Em         D               G         C 
Blues this morning falling down like hail 
G             Am     G 
Gonna leave a greasy trail 
 
Gonna travel the world is what I'm gonna do 
Then come back and see you 
All I ever do is struggle and strive 
If I don't do anybody any harm, I might make it back home alive 
 
I'm the oldest son of a crazy man 
I'm in a cowboy band 
Got a pile of sins to pay for and I ain't got time to hide 
I'd walk through a blazing fire, baby, if I knew you was on the other side 
 
(Chorus) 
      G 
Oh, I miss you Nettie Moore 
       C 
And my happiness is o'er 
Am                                G 
Winter's gone, the river's on the rise 
            G             B7 
I loved you then and ever shall 
            C                          G 
But there's no one here that's left to tell 
    C              Am              G 
The world has gone black before my eyes
