E I gave my woman half my money at the general store B7 I said now buy a little groceries and don't spend no more E Then she paid ten dollars for a ten cent hat A B7 E And got some store bought cat food for a mean eyed cat When I give her ten more dollars for a one-way ticket She was mad as she could be Then I bet ten more that if she ever left She'd come a crawlin' back to me When I woke up this morning and I turned my head There wasn't a cotton-picking thing on her side of the bed I found a little old note, where her head belonged It said, "Dear John, honey, baby, I'm long gone" When I heard a whistle blowing and the big wheels a-turning I was scared as I could be I put on my overalls and I headed for town I'm gonna bring her back with me I asked the man down at the station if he'd seen her there I told him all about her pretty eyes and long blonde hair He spit his tobacco and said, "I'll be dad blamed" "I believe I did see her leaving on the east-bound train" I bought a round-trip ticket on the east-bound train I was broke as I could be But when I come back, I got to buy another ticket Gonna bring her back with me | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  E  B7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
