Sorrowbound

© Words & music © A Toone 1993. Key of Am

Well, I've been down the good red road
And I been up the Sante Fe trail
tried to live right and carry my load
Try as I might, it seems I have failed

{chorus}
I walk the streets of all your towns
Everywhere I go, I'm sorrowbound
In darkest night, haunted by the sound
Whispered on the wind, I'm sorrowbound

Well, it was on a cloudy day
he should not have run me round
He stacked the deck and tried to play
There was a hush as he hit the ground

I walk the streets of all your towns
Everywhere I go, I'm sorrowbound
In darkest night, haunted by the sound
Whispered on the wind, I'm sorrowbound

I never meant to hurt no one
I didn't mean to cause no harm
From the seventh daughter to the seventh son
Everywhere I go they sound the alarm

I walk the streets of all your towns
Everywhere I go, I'm sorrowbound
In darkest night, haunted by the sound
Whispered on the wind, I'm sorrowbound
