Verse 1

G                     D    G
I'd rather be in some dark hollow
C                         G
Where the sun don't never shine
G          C
Than to be home alone and knowing that you're gone
G                 D       G
Would cause me to lose my mind

Chorus

G
So blow your whistle freight train
C                            G
Carry me farther on down the track
G              C
Well I'm going away I'm leaving today
G               D            G
I'm going but I ain't coming back

Verse 2

G                     D    G
I'd rather be in some dark hollow
C                        G
Where the sun don't ever shine
G          C
Than to be in some big city
G                         D          G
In a small room with your love on my mind

(Chorus)

Verse 3

G                     D    G
I’d rather be in some dark hollow
C                        G
Where the sun don’t ever shine
G           C
Then to see you as another man’s darling
G                    D       G
Or to know you won’t ever be mine
