Tom: C

C               G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road

                         D7            G7
Found my treasure at the end of love's rainbow

C
I found a love for which I'm pining

F                       C
Pretty as a rainbow her love was shining

                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road


                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road

                         D7               G7
Cause I've found the key to this lovesick code

C
I found a love and that's no lying

F                     C
A gal I can trust without denying

                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road


                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road

                       D7                  G7
Now I've found the gal to share this heavy load

C
I vowed to her that I would take her

F                   C
To the preacher and never forsake her

                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road


                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road

                         D7       G7
For to her apron strings now I am sewed

C
I love that gal and I want her only

F                       C
You gotta have a gal or you'll get lonely

                G7                 C
I'm done roving down this lonesome road
