 I was talking to a lady a few days ago
       C (x32010@1)                     G (320003@1)And these are the words she said
         C (x32010@1)If you see my child somewhere
         F (133211@1)               C (x32010@1)As you journey here and there
                               G (320003@1)          C (x32010@1)Tell him I'm waiting for my child to come home

       C (x32010@1)                   F (133211@1)          G (320003@1)I'm waiting and waiting for my child to come
          C (x32010@1)If you can't come home
             F (133211@1)             C (x32010@1)Could you please send me a letter
                 G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)A letter would mean so much to me

C (x32010@1)Oh my child may be somewhere
              F (133211@1)On his sick bed
         C (x32010@1)                          G (320003@1)With no one there to rub his aching head
         C (x32010@1)Oh my child may be somewhere
                  F (133211@1)In some lonely jail
       C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)            C (x32010@1)    (G)
 With no one there to go his bail

C (x32010@1)                F (133211@1)           C (x32010@1)If I only knew what town my child was in
                                       G (320003@1)I'll be there on that early morning train
         C (x32010@1)And no matter what's crime
            F (133211@1)                    C (x32010@1)Lord you know that this child is mine
                                    G (320003@1)          C (x32010@1)That's why I'd be waiting for my child to come home

C (x32010@1)                    F (133211@1)         C (x32010@1)I am waiting and waiting for my child to come

             F (133211@1)             C (x32010@1)Could you please send me a letter
                 G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)A letter would mean so much to me

C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)I am waiting, waiting
       C (x32010@1)         F (133211@1)I am waiting and waiting
       C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)          F (133211@1)     C (x32010@1)I am waiting for my child to come home
