When [C]I was a child my [F]family would [C]travel
Down to [C]Western Kentucky where my [G]parents were [C]born
And there's a [C]backwards old town that's [F]often re[C]membered
[C]So many times that the [G]memories are [C]worn
{end_of_verse}
{soc}
So [C]Daddy won't you take me back to [F]Muhlenberg [C]County
Down [C]by the Green River where [G]Paradise [C]lay
Well, I'm [C]sorry my son, but you're [F]too late in [C]asking
Mister [C]Peabody's coal train done [G]hauled it a[C]way
{eoc}
{start_of_verse}
[C]Sometimes we'd travel right [F]down the Green [C]River
To the [C]abandoned old prison u[G]pon Adrie [C]Hill
Where the [C]air smelled like snakes and we'd [F]shoot with our [C]pistols
But [C]empty pop bottles was [G]all that we'd [C]kill

Then the [C]coal comp'ny came with the [F]world's largest [C]shovel
They [C]tortured the timber, they [G]stripped all the [C]land
Well, they [C]cut it all down lookin' [F]for that [C]coal
An' they [C]wrote it all down as the [G]progress of [C]man

When I [C]die let my ashes float [F]down the Green [C]River
Let 'em [C]roll on up to the [G]Rochester [C]Dam
I'll be [C]halfway to heaven with [F]Paradise [C]waitin'
Just [C]five miles away from wher[G]ever I [C]am

{start_of_chorus}
[N.C.]There's a man who walks beside me he is who I used to be,
[N.C.]and I wonder if she sees him and confuses him with me
[N.C.]And I wonder who she's pining for on nights I'm not around
Could it [Dm]be the man who [Am7]did the things I'm [Fmaj7]living down
{end_of_chorus}
{start_of_verse}
I was [Am]rougher than the timber [C/B]shipping [C]out of Fond du Lac
When I [Dm]headed south at [Am7]seventeen, the [Fmaj7]sheriff on my back
I'd [Am]never held a lover [C/B]in my [C]arms or in my gaze,
So I [Dm]found another [Am7]victim every [Fmaj7]couple days
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse}
But the [Am]night I fell in love with [C/B]her, I [C]made my weakness known
To the [Dm]fighters and the [Am7]farmers digging [Fmaj7]dusty fields alone
The [Am]jealous innuendos of the [C/B]lonely-hearted [C]men
Let me [Dm]know what kind of [Am7]country I was [Fmaj7]sleeping in
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse}
Well you [Am]couldn't stay a loner [C/B]on the [C]plains before the war
When my [Dm]neighbors took to [Am7]slightin' me, I [Fmaj7]had to ask what for
[Am]Rumors of my wicked[C/B]ness had [C]reached our little town
Soon she'd [Dm]heard about the [Am7]boys I used to [Fmaj7]hang around
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse}
We'd [Am]robbed a great-lakes freighter, [C/B]killed a [C]couple men aboard
When I [Dm]told her, her eyes [Am7]flickered like the [Fmaj7]sharp steel of a sword
All the [Am]things that she'd suspected, [C/B]I'd [C]expected her to fear
Dm Am7 Fmaj7
Was the [Dm]truth that drew her [Am7]to me when I [Fmaj7]landed here
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_chorus}
There's a [Am]man who walks beside me [C/B]he is [C]who I used to be,
And I [Dm]wonder if she [Am7]sees him and [Fmaj7]confuses him with me
And I [Am]wonder who she's pining for [C/B]on [C]nights I'm not around
Could it [Dm]be the man who [Am7]did the things I'm [Fmaj7]living down

Well I [Am]carved her cross from live oak and [C/B]her [C]box from short-leaf pine,
And [Dm]buried her so [Am7]deep, she'd touch the [Fmaj7]water table line
And [Am]picked up what I needed and [C/B]I [C]headed south again
To my[Dm]self, I wondered, "[Am7]Would I ever [Fmaj7]find another friend"
{end_of_verse}
There's a [Am]man who walks beside her, [C/B]he is [C]who I used to be,
And I [Dm]wonder if she [Am7]sees him and [Fmaj7]confuses him with me
