Some Old Day

Flatt & Scruggs


Tom: G

G
I've been working out in the rain
          C                  G
Tied to a dirty old ball and chain
                         A7            D7
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day
           G
Some sweet day will turn me loose
          C             G
From this dirty old calaboose
                         A7   D7       G
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day


[Chorus]

         C                          G
Some old day you'll wait for me and pray
                         A7            D7
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day
           G
Some sweet day will turn me loose
          C             G
From this dirty old calaboose
                         A7   D7       G
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day


[Verse 2]

Oh dear mother I've hurt you so
          C              G
I've been cruel to you I know
                         A7            D7
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day
G
Tell my brother my sister and dad
            C                      G
They’re the best friends that I’ve had
                         A7   D7       G
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day


[Chorus]

         C                          G
Some old day you'll wait for me and pray
                         A7            D7
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day
           G
Some sweet day will turn me loose
          C             G
From this dirty old calaboose
                         A7   D7       G
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day


[Chorus]

         C                          G
Some old day you'll wait for me and pray
                         A7            D7
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day
           G
Some sweet day will turn me loose
          C             G
From this dirty old calaboose
                         A7   D7       G
Oh dear mother I'll come home some old day
