I am a man of constant sorrow

C D G

I’ve seen trouble all my days

D G C

I’ll say goodbye to Colorado

D G

Where I was born and partly raised

D G C

Your mother says I’m a stranger;

C D G

My face you’ll never see no more.

D G C

But there’s one promise, darling,

D G

I’ll see you on god’s golden shore.

D G C

Through this open world I’m a-bound to ramble

C D G

Through ice and snow, sleet and rain

D G C

I’m a-bound to ride that morning railroad

C D G

Perhaps I’ll die up on that train

D G C

I’m going back to colorado,

C D G

The place that I’ve started from.

D G C

If I’d knowed how bad you’d treat me,

C D G

Honey I never would have come.
