Capo 2   
 
              C5 
I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune 
 
Aw, babe I'm a comin' soon 
     G5 
I cannot b'leive I stayed so long away 
      C5 
But a man must look around 
 
And you're the sweetest thing I've found 
         G5                               C5 
Aw, your lost high roller's rolling home today 
 
 
Well my daddy said to me 
Son, it's hard as you will see 
To find someone upon whom to rely 
In the kitchen momma sneezed 
Daddy grinned big as you please 
Said "bless you" and a tear came to his eye 
 
(guitar for one verse) 
 
I did decide that very day 
That I would like to live that way 
And now I know I've just been wasting time 
It's with you that I should be 
And if you feel the same 'bout me 
I'm headed home along the straightest line 
 
I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune 
Aw, babe I'm a comin' soon 
I cannot b'leive I stayed so long away 
But a man must look around 
And you're the sweetest thing I've found 
Aw, your lost high roller's rolling home today
