[ Предположительная тональность: D ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welfare Line - Highwaymen ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Dave S. Email: prime-prine@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard Artist: The Highwaymen Album: Highwayman Year: 1985 D Well, now boys, I've been to Bethlehem. G Rode there on a big steam train. D Lost two fingers in the steel mills. A D And I ain't goin' back again. D I fought for my country, G Lord knows, I did my best. D Crawlin' 'cross some foreign field, A D They pinned a ribbon to my chest. Chorus: G So, pass around the bottle, boys, D Let's talk about old times. D Night's rollin' in, it's cold as sin, A D Here on the welfare line. D Served on the Georgia Road Gang. G Couldn't pay the debts I owed. D 'Cause I'm ain't made of silver, A D And I ain't never seen no gold. D I still remember Rachael, G Soft as a velvet gown. D They layed her in the pauper's grave, A D On the other side of town. (Repeat Chorus) Break: D G D A D D Now some folks are born to money, G You know I wish them well. D If the devil should ever want my soul, A D I swear I'd never sell. (Repeat Chorus 2x)
