Man of Constant Sorrow

^D I am the man of constant ^G sorrow
I’ve seen ^A7 trouble on my ^D days
I bid farewell to old Ken- ^G tucky
The place where ^A7 I was born and ^D raised

 

1. I am the man of constant sorrow
I’ve seen trouble on my days
I bid farewell to old Kentucky
The place where I was born and raised

2. For six long years I’ve been in trouble
No pleasure here on earth I find
For in this world I’m bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now

3. Hey it’s fair the well my old true lover
I never expect to see you again
For I’m bound to ri-de that northern railroad
Perhaps I’ll die upon this train

4. You can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I’ll be laid
And you may learn to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave

5. Maybe your friends think I’m just a stranger
My face you’ll never see no more
But there is one promise that is given
I’ll meet you on God’s golden shore
