VERSE I
G C G
Well, as I was out walking round the corner one day
G D
I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he lay
G C G
His face was all grounded, in the cold sidewalk floor
G D G
I guess he'd been there for a whole night and more
CHORUS
C G
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
D
Leaving nobody to sing his sad song
C G
He's leaving nobody to carry him home
C G
He was only a hobo, well one more, one more, one more, one more is gone

VERSE II
A blanket of newspaper covered his head
And the dirt was his pillow and the street was his bed
One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come
And a fistful of coins showed the money he'd bummed
CHORUS

VERSE III
It takes much of a man to see his whole life go down
Stare at the world from a hole in the ground
To wait for his future like a horse that's gone lame
To lie in the gutter, and to die with no name
CHORUS
