                                   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 Coda: same as intro
