                                   C7      F                 C
How are things in Clay, Kentucky?  Bet you thought I'd never care
      G7    C                                           G
There was a time when I felt lucky just to be away from there
G7       C                         C7     F                  C
I've had all of what I wanted, but what I want, I just can't find
  G7         C                                      G7    C
& how things are in Clay, Kentucky, has been lately on my mind

A7     D                      D7        G               D
  All alone in New York City, searchin' for that pot of gold
        A7     D                                                 A
Now I'm at the end of all my rainbows, & all at once I'm feelin' old
  A7        D                           D7     G             D
I count the tires of how I'm livin', of what I am & what I'm not
  A7       D                                       A7   D
& the only gold in New York City is in a Salvation Army pot

B7            E                        E7      A                E
  I'm gettin' blue for the bluegrass & how the old folks are at home
B7       E                                            B
Just let me do the talkin', 'cause I know you're all alone
B7     E                                A                E
I hear kids back there playin'; I won't be, don't notice me
B7    E                                         B7     E
Jesus knows I still love you, but I just had to call & see

G7           C                       C7      F                 C
  How things are in Clay, Kentucky.  Bet you thought I'd never care
      G7    C                                           G
There was a time when I felt lucky just to be away from there
G7       C                         C7     F                  C
I've had all of what I wanted, but what I want, I just can't find
  G7         C               Am              C      G7    C
& how things are in Clay, Kentucky, has been lately on my mind
  G7         C               Am              C      G7    C
& how things are in Clay, Kentucky, has been lately on my mind
