D

D           A                      D In constant sorrow all through his days 

D                      GI Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow 
          A              DI've seen trouble all my day. 
                         GI bid farewell to old Kentucky 
                A              DThe place where I was born and raised. 
                A               DThe place where he was born and raised 

D                               GFor six long years I've been in trouble 
             A               DNo pleasures here on earth I found 
                               GFor in this world I'm bound to ramble 
          A                  DI have no friends to help me now. 
          A                   DHe has no friends to help him now 

D                          GIt's fare thee well my old lover 
          A                DI never expect to see you again 
                                    GFor I'm bound to ride that northern railroad 
             A             DPerhaps I'll die upon this train. 
              A             DPerhaps he'll die upon this train. 

D                            GYou can bury me in some deep valley 
         A                 DFor many years where I may lay 
                            GThen you may learn to love another 
           A              DWhile I am sleeping in my grave. 
            A               DWhile he is sleeping in his grave. 

D                                   GMaybe your friends think I'm just a stranger 
               A            DMy face you'll never see no more. 
                                 GBut there is one promise that is given 
              A               DI'll meet you on God's golden shore. 
               A               DHe'll meet you on God's golden shore..
