       Cadd9
He had plastic bags wrapped round his shoes,

       Cadd9
He was covered with the evening news,

      G            D             G
Had a pair of ol' wool socks on his hands.

    Cadd9
The banks sign was flashing five below,

        Cadd9
It was freezin' rain and spittin' snow,

       G           D                 G
He was curled up behind some garbage cans.

B7                                 C
I was afraid that he was dead, I gave him a gentle shake,

B7                                    C             D C/D  D5
When he opened up his eyes I said, old man are you ok, he said

                          Cadd9
I just climbed out of the Cottonwood tree,

                        G
I was running from some honey bees,

                   Cadd9
Drip-drying in the summer breeze,

                   D      Dsus4 D
After jumpin' into Calico Creek.

                          Cadd9
And I was walkin' down an old dirt road,

                             G              B A G F#
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed

Em                         C         D                  G
Man I wish you'd just left me alone, cause I was almost home.

              Cadd9
And he said, I's just comin' round the barn,

Cadd9
'Bout the time you grabbed my arm,

     G             D                 G
When I heard momma holler, son hurry up.

      Cadd9
I was close enough for my own nose

Cadd9
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove,

    G           D              G
And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck.

B7                                    C
Cane poles on the tailgate, bobbler's blowin' in the wind,

      B7                    C             D C/D  D5
Since July of 55, that's as close as I've been, yeah

                          Cadd9
I just climbed out of the Cottonwood tree,

                        G

Em                         C         D                  G
Man I wish you'd just left me alone, cause I was almost home.

       D
I said old man you're gonna freeze to death,

       Em
Let me drive you to the mission.

        C                                 D                 Dsus4  D
He said boy if you'd left me alone, right now I'd be fishin'

                          Cadd9
I just climbed out of the Cottonwood tree,

                        G

Em                         Cadd9     D            Cadd9
Man I wish you'd just left me alone, I was almost home.
