You're Going Out The Same Way You Came In lyrics and chords

 Recorded by Big Tom, I've no idea who wrote this one, if you know give me a shout. The guitar work is by Marc Fahrbach. The sheet music and tin whistle notes are included. The title of the song is one of the longest titles I ever came across, great performance here by Big Tom.

The sheet music / mandolin / tenor banjo tab for Your going out the same way you came in is in the ebook of mandolin tabs here . The tin whistle / sheet music notes are in my other ebook of songs here

Your Going Out The Same Way You Came In song lyrics and chords in C Major.
Ah, we’re (C)going out the same way we came (G)in
Don’t matter who you know or where you’ve (C)been
Makes no difference who you are
Skid row (F)joe or super star
You’re (C)going out the (G)same way you came (C)in
 
We were (C)born into this world without a (F)thing
And we (C)leave it just as naked as we (G)came
You may (C)drive a coup de ville
Own a (F)mansion on a hill
Don’t mean (C)nothing when St (G)Peter calls your (C)name
 
Ah, you’re (C)going out the same way you came (G)in
Someone will notify you’re next of (C)kin
Some will weep and some will moan
Some may (F)spit upon your stone
But you’re (C)going out the (G)same way you came (C)in
 
C-G-C-C
 
Oh they’ll (C)lay you out in all your fancy (F)clothes
And they’ll (C)figure out just who and what you (G)owe
Then the (C)lawyers line their nests
And your (F)kinfolk get the rest
No (C)you can’t take it (G)with you when you (C)go (D) Change of key! (optional)
 
Ah, you’re (D)going out the same way we came (A)in
Makes no difference who you know or where you’ve (D)been
Makes no difference who you are
Skid row (G)Joe or super star
You’re (D)going out the (A)same way you came (D)in
 
Repeat last chorus
 
Yeah, you’re (D)going out the (A)same way we came (D)in
