Put Me in Your Pocket - Merle Haggard

Two 
G
lovers 
D7
sat one 
G
evening be
C
neath the pale moon
G
light

To
C
morrow he must 
G
go away, a 
A7
battlle for to 
D7
fight

He 
G
told her 
D7
that he 
G
loved her, that 
C
he'd return some 
G
day

And 
C
take her as his 
G
darling bride, and 
D7
then he heard her 
G
say

	
G
Put me 
D7
in your 
G
pocket so 
C
I'll be close to 
G
you

	No 
C
more will I be 
G
lonesome, no 
A7
more will I be 
D7
blue

	And 
G
when we 
D7
have to 
G
part Dear, there'll 
C
be no sad a
G
dieu

	For 
C
I'll be in your 
G
pocket, and I'll 
D7
go along with 
G
you

That 
G
evening 
D7
soon was 
G
ended. Her 
C
soldier went a
G
way

And 
C
when at last he 
G
did return for a 
A7
happy homecomming 
D7
day

His 
G
sweetheart 
D7
she was 
G
absent, to 
C
Heaven she had 
G
gone

But 
C
she left for him her 
G
photograph, on 
D7
which she wrote this 
G
song
