  48 Well, I walked all night long

  50 Hearin' them church bells toll
  51        A

  56 Either someone needing mercy
  57 A                             E
  58  might be somethin' I've done wrong.

  60 Well, your friends come by for you
  61 I don't know what to say
  62 Well, your friends come by for you
  63 I don't know what to say
  64 I just can't face to tell 'em
  65 Honey you just went away.

  67 The children cry for mother
  68 I tell 'em, &quot;Mother took a trip.&rdquo;
  69 Well, the children cry for mother
  70 I tell 'em, &quot;Mother took a trip.&rdquo;
  71 Well, I walk on pins and needles
  72 I hope my tongue don't slip.
  73
  74 Well, I gaze at passing strangers
  75 In case I might see you
  76 Yes, I gaze at passing strangers
  77 In case I might see you
  78 But the sun goes around the heavens
  79 And another day just drives on through.
  80
  81 Way out in the distance
  82 I know you're with some other man
  83 Way out in the distance
  84 I know you're with some other man
  85 But that's all right, baby
  86 You know I always understand.
  87
  88 Call girls in the doorway
  89 All givin' me the eye
  90 Call girls in the doorway
  91 All givin' me the eye
  92 But my heart's just not in it
  93 I might as well pass right on by.
  94
  95 My ears are ringin'
  96 Ringin' like empty shells
  97 My ears are ringin'
  98 Ringin' like empty shells
  99 Well, it can't be no guitar player
 100 It must be combat bells.
