Wish I Hadnt Stayed Away So Long
Guy Davis
Capo 2nd Fret [Intro] [Verse 1] I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home And I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long [Verse 2] My mother died when I was on the road My mother died when I was on the road Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home My mother died when I was on the road (I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long) [Chorus] I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home And I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long [Verse 3] I got home too late to say goodbye I got home too late to say goodbye Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home I got home too late to say goodbye [Chorus] I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home And I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long [Solo] [Verse 4] I can’t count the times I stole away and cried I can’t count the times I stole away and cried Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home I can’t count the times I stole away and cried [Chorus] I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home And I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long [Slow Chorus] I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long Bell rang on the midnight train Carrying a hobo’s home And I wish I hadn’t stayed away so long
