Unwed Fathers Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

GIn an Appalachian, CGreyhound Gstation C

She sits there Gwaiting, Din a family Gway

'Goodbye brother, CTell Mom I Glove her' C

'Tell all the Gothers, DI'll write someGday'

Chorus

GFrom an teenage Clover, to an unwed Gmother

kept undercovers, like some bad Ddream

While unwed Gfathers, Cthey can't be Gbothered C

They run like Gwater, Dthrough a mountain Gstream

GIn a cold and grey town, Ca nurse say's G'Lay down' C

'This ain't no Gplayground, aDnd this ain't Ghome'

Someones children, Cout having GchildrenC

in a grey stone Gbuilding, aDll al-Gone

(Chorus)

GSome where else bound, CSmokey Mountain GGreyhound C

She bows her Ghead down, Dhumming lullaGbys

'Your daddy never, Cmeant to hurt you Gever' C

'he just don't Glive here, Dbut you've got hisG eyes'

(Chorus)
