Hobos Meditation Chords & Lyrics - Merle Haggard

[C]Tonight as I [G7]lay on a [C]boxcar

[F]Just waiting for a train to pass [C]by

[F]What will become of the [C]hobo

[D7]Whenever that time comes to [G7]die

[C]Has the Master up [G7]yonder in [C]heaven

[F]Got a place that we might call our [C]home

[F]Will we have to work for a [C]living

[D7]Or can we [G7]continue to [C]roam

Will there be any [G7]freight trains in [C]heaven

[F]Any boxcars in which we might [C]hide

[F]Will there be any tough cops and [C]brakemen

[D7]Will they tell us we cannot [G7]ride

[C]Will the hobo [G7]chum with the rich [C]man

[F]Will we always have money to [E7]spare

[F]Will they have respect for a [C]hobo

In the land that [G7]lies hidden up [C]there

Will there be any [G7]freight trains in [C]heaven

[F]Any boxcars in which we might [C]hide

[F]Will there be any tough cops and [C]brakemen

[D7]Will they tell us we cannot [G7]ride

[C]Will the hobo [G7]chum with the rich [C]man

[F]Will we always have money to [E7]spare

[F]Will they have respect for a [C]hobo

In the land that [G7]lies hidden up [C]there
