I am a Man of Constant Sorrow
Traditional, Carter Stanley / Soggy Bottom Boys featuring Dan Tyminski: O Brother, where art thou?
| E | | E | B7 | E |
| | | In constant | sorrow all through his | days. |
| E | A |
| I am a man of constant | sorrow, |
| B7 | E |
I've seen | trouble all my | day. |
| A |
I bid farewell to old Ken | tucky, |
| B7 | E |
The place where | I was born and | raised. |
| B7 | E |
- The place where | he was born and | raised. - |
For six long years I've been in trouble, | |
No pleasures here on earth I found. | |
For in this world I'm bound to ramble, | |
I have no friends to help me now. | |
- He has no friends to help him now. - | |
It's fare thee well my old lover, | |
I never expect to see you again. | |
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad, | |
Perhaps I'll die upon this train. | |
- Perhaps he'll die upon this train. - | |
You can bury me in some deep valley, | |
For many years where I may lay. | |
Then you may learn to love another, | |
While I am sleeping in my grave. | |
- While he is sleeping in his grave. - | |
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. | |
- He'll meet you on God's golden shore. - | |
