Ramblin' Hearts
by Nick Holmes


Intro:  Gmin Bflat

F
In the hills of Toucomb County

B flat                 F
There's a wild flower grows

F
Likes the windy places

    G              C
to feel her hair aglow

F
For she dreams of flyin'

         B flat           F
and some day we know she will

F
'Cause it's hard to keep the restless happy

         C                 F
and the ramblin' hearts still.


Winter broke in '69
Spring awoke to find
She'd a been seen a ridin'
with the travelin' man down the line
when we heard she married quick
some boy from Tennessee
who lost his life down in the mine
he was diggin' for a company


          B flat                     F
Ramblin' Hearts come home when they want to

          B flat                F        C
Ramblin' Hearts truly love to roam

          G min                    F
Ramblin' Hearts they like bein' free

F                         C
Ramblin' Hearts don't like it much

F                         B flat
Ramblin' Hearts don't like it much and

F                         C            Gmin    B flat
Ramblin' Hearts don't like it much alone


She took to workin' saloons
dancin' and sellin' 'cane
fightin' off the bruisers
and usin' another name
'Til one day she walked back up
the road and dressin' plain
bought a rock farm on the hill
with some money that she'd saved.


Oh Ramblin' Hearts  etc........

Chords with guitar solo:  F C F Bflat F C Gmin B flat

F etc...
Now she comes down once a week
savin' say a  prayer
for the husband that she left a 100 feet down there
must have been a son she loved
she talks about him some
who left when he when grew big enough
but he said someday he'd come back

Ramblin' Hearts etc...
