In constant sorrow - - all through his days.

I - - am a man - - of constant sorrow,
/        |D    / /     /     |G    / / / |
I've seen trou - - ble all my days,
G / / /       |/    / /    /      |C     / /
I - - bid fare-well - - to old Ken-tucky,
    /          |D / /     /         |G      / / 
The place where I - - was borned and raised,
     /          |D  / /     /         |G       / / / |
(The place where he - - was borned 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,
(He has no friends - - to help him now).

3.

It's fare - -  thee-ee well - - my own true 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).

4.

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 slee - - ping in my grave,
(While he is slee - - ping in his grave).

5.

May - - be your friends think - - I'm just a stranger,
My face you ne - -  ver will see no more,
But - - there is one pro - - mise that is given,
I'll meet you on - - G-d's golden shore,
(He'll meet you on - - G-d's golden shore).
