Hank Williams - Lonely Tombs Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • (e) I was strollin one day, in a lonely graveyard,
  • When a voice from the tomb, seemed to (b7) say,
  • I once (e) lived as you live, walked and talked as you talk,
  • But from earth I was (b7) soon called a- (e) way.
  • Chorus
  • (e) oh, those tombs, (oh those tombs),
  • Lonely tombs, (lonely tombs ),
  • Seemed to say in a low gentle (b7) tone,
  • Oh how (e) sweet, (oh how sweet),
  • Is the rest, (is the rest),
  • In our beautiful, (b7) heavenly (e) home.
  • Every voice from the tomb, seemed to whisper and say,
  • Livin man you must soon follow me,
  • And I thought as I gazed, on that cold marble slab,
  • What a sad lonesome place that must be.
  • Repeat chorus
  • I then came to the place, where my mother did lay,
  • And her voice, soft and low, from the tomb,
  • It said, son Im at rest, with the savior above,
  • I am safe in my heavenly home.
  • Repeat chorus
