Woody Guthrie

Hobos Lullaby Ukulele Chords

A tune from the Great Depression Era, as preformed by Woodie Guthrie


C                      F     
Go to sleep, you weary hobo,
G7                         C
Let the towns drift slowly by.
C              C7              Dm
Listen to those steel rails hummin'?
G7              C  
That's a hobo's lullaby

C                  F
Ho Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho Ho-Ho-Ho
G7           C        
Ho Ha-Ho-Ho, Ho-Ho
C             C7             Dm
Ho Ha-Ho Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho Ha-Ho Ho-Ho-Ho

C                     F
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow,
G7                    C
Let tomorrow come and go;
C              C7             Dm  
Tonight you're in a nice warm box car,
G7                         C 
Safe from all the wind and snow.

C                             F 
I know the breakman cause you trouble;
G7                     C
They cause you trouble everywhere.
C         C7                Dm    
But when you die and go to heaven
G7                      C
You'll find no breakman there.


C                        F     
So go to sleep, you weary hobo,
G7                         C
Let the towns drift slowly by.
C             C7          Dm
Listen to the steel rails humminnnnn'....
G7              C  
That's a hobo's lullaby.


C         C7         Dm
Those steel rails humminnnnn'....
G7              C  
That's a hobo's lullaby.
G7                     C  
Yes, That's the hobo's lullaby.
