You don't have to hide your baby you don't have to go get no gun
D C G D
Oh, how can you blame me for things I ain't never done
G F C G
I used to live here and now I've come back again
G F C G
Just to stop for awhile and think how things might have been
G F C G
I had to come back to remember the joy and the pain
G F C G
And if it's alright with you, before I get back on the train
G F C D
I just want to see Montgomery in the ra-in
D C G D
Around these streets and old houses a whole lot of changes I've been thru
D C G D
From the top of the town to feeling down, washing cars and shining shoes
G F C G
I once met a woman here with ways like I've never seen
G F C G
And we use to ramble from here to old New Orleans
G F C G
I had to come back to remember the joy and the pain
G F C G
But it won't be long till I'm gone cause it ain't the same
G F C A
But I did want to see Montgomery in the ra-in
D C G D
I've just came back here to stare at an old window pane
D C G D
For one last look before you tear it all down with your crane
G F C G
You don't have to hide your baby, You don't have to go get no gun
G F C G
Don't you stare like I'm crazy just cause I am Hank's only son
G F C G
I had to come back to remember the joy and the pain
G F C G
But it won't be long till I'm gone cause it ain't the same
G F C G
So if its alright with you before I get back on the train
G F C G
I'm gonna go out to Hank's tombstone and cry up a thunderstorm chain
G F C A D
Cause I've got to see Montgomery in the ra---in
