Detroit City - Bobbby Bare - 30 bpm - 2 time

	I want to go 
E
home, 

I want to go 
A
home,

	
E
Oh Lord, I 
B7
want to go 
E
home,

Last 
E
night I went to 
B7
sleep in Detroit 
E
city,

And I 
B7
dreamed about those 

cotton fields and 
E
home,

I 
A
dreamed about my 

mother, dear old 
E
papa, sister and 

brother,

And I 
F#7
dreamed about that 

girl, whose been 
B7
waitin' for so 

long,

 
E
Home folks think I'm 
B7
big in Detroit 
E
city,

From the 
B7
letters that I 

write they think I'm 
E
fine,

But by 
A
day I make the 

cars, by 
E
night I make the 

bars,

If 
F#7
only they could 

read between the 
B7
lines,

I 
E
rode a freight train 
B7
north to Detroit 
E
city,

After 
B7
all these years I've been 

wasting my 
E
time,

I'll 
A
take my foolish 

pride, on a 
E
southbound freight and 

ride,

Go on 
F#7
back to the 

ones, I've left 
B7
waitin' so far be

hind.
