A Capo on the 5th Fret can sound a bit off with the previously made chords so 
here's a progression that doesn't call for a Capo. Hope this helps!!

Intro:

Am F C C x3
G F (silence)

Verse:
Am  F       C
Lay down my head by the wayside
Am  F       C
My worn out shoes
Am    F       C
Quite why she went I can't decide
G                     F
Yeah but I sure could use
Am  F        C
One plate of food steaming and hot
Am    F     C
Clean linen ironed
Am   F          C
On a fresh made bed but I ain't got
G         F     G         Am   F   C
One salty dime, one salty dime


Just close your eyes it won't take long
It won't hurt a bit
Telling myself I could be strong
Or some such brave bullshit
Trucks are roaring by I'm a red ghost
In their tail light gleam
I'm a tumbleweed, I'm a spit roast
Just turning in your flame
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Oh my darlin' Kathleen

Cars they sound like waves that are breaking
On some distant shore
I gazed so hard into the great aching sky
It seemed that I, I wasn't here no more
That my rushing blood was a river
My eyes two stars
My blowing hair all a quiver
A whispering field of grass
That murmurs as you pass
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
That whispers out your name
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
Oh my darlin' Kathleen
