Unwed Fathers

          G                  C         G       C 
         In an Appalachian, Greyhound station 
                        G        D           G 
         She sits there waiting, in a family way 

                           C          G         C 
         'Goodbye brother, Tell Mom I love her' 
                       G       D              G 
         'Tell all the others, I'll write someday' 

                        G               C                  G 
         From an teenage lover, to an unwed mother 
                                         D 
         kept undercovers, like some bad dream 
                     G        C             G        C 
         While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered 
                       G      D                  G 
         They run like water, through a mountain stream 
         G                        C             G          C 
         In a cold and grey town, a nurse say's 'Lay down' 
                        G            D             G 
         'This ain't no playground, and this ain't home' 
                            C          G       C 
         Someones children, out having children 
                         G          D     G 
         in a grey stone building, all al-one 

         (Chorus) 

         G                      C               G         C 
         Some where else bound, Smokey Mountain Greyhound 
                      G          D            G 
         She bows her head down, humming lullabys 
                            C                 G     C 
         'Your daddy never, meant to hurt you ever' 
                        G          D                 G 
         'he just don't live here, but you've got his eyes' 

         (Chorus)
