                A
1.A long time ago
                   D
  No shoes on my feet
                                E
  I walked ten miles of train track
                         A
  To hear Hank Williams sing  (follow the same progression throughout)

  His body was worn
  But his spirit was free
  And he sang every song
  Looking right straight at me

C1.Just a tramp on your street
  You must understand
  You got my soul at your feet
  And my heart in your hand

2.No I don't have to pick
  And I don't have to choose
  I don't have to win
  And I don't have to lose

  And if I make any pay
  I just throw it away
  I don't count on tomorrow
  I just live for today

C.
C2.Still you opened yourself
  And you held me inside
  You made a stray dog like me
  Feel welcome tonight
C.
ADEA ADEA
C.
C2.
                               A DEA
  I'm just a tramp on your street
