A D A We were sitting 'round the garbage can passin' round the bottle, D A E A We were cold and burning anything, that was dry enough to burn. A shaking man said he had left his family back in Boston And I knew I'd hear a whole lot more, before it came my turn A bearded man in his army coat said the answer boys is Jesus The one called Joe, said all I know is isn't January hell One guy said let's have a drink to Flagstaff Arizona And I thought I might freeze to death before I'd get to tell Chorus: D A About Mobile Bay, magnolia blossoms, Bm D cool summer nights A Warm rolling seas, D A and all my dreams, somewhere I'd lost them Bm D E A Mobile Bay, magnolia leaves, sweet Rosalee The sun was barely coming up on the wrong side of Chicago And I was cold and hungry and all the wine was gone People passed and pointed, said, there's another wino They didn't know that one more time my dreams would take me home Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  D  E  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
