Wandering Boy Rodney Crowell (Rodney Crowell) From The Houston Kid transcribed by Doug Floyd From the website AltCountryTab.com which can be found at http://www.altcountrytab.com C Come In from the cold you must be cold Am Thread bare against a freezing wind Is a short time getting old C Come and sit down tall me where you've been Am Rest your soul beside the fire ‘til it's time to go again F Em Am Take me back F Em Am One more time F Em Am Where the railroad tracks Dm - C - F G Meet the kudzu vine C Wandering boy The blood that flowing through you flows through me When I look in any mirror it's your face that I see You're my only brother I'm your twin You've come home to rest awhile and shed your dying skin Ease your mind Have no fear When it comes your time I'll be here Wandering boy Em We are two Houston kids Sailing mason jar lids With our pop bottles hid F Em Dm By the bayous bend F Em Dm In the wild East End F Em Dm We'll go back again C Wandering boy I used to cast my judgements like a net All those California gay boys deserve just what they get Little did I know there would come a day When my words would come back screaming like a debt I have to pay, Lean on me I'll be strong We're almost free It won't be long Wandering boy
