Originally done in F (E capo 1)
A7 --In constant sorrow all through his days.
I am the man of constant sorrow, I've seen trouble all my days.
I bid farewell to old Kentucky the place where I was born and raised.
--the place where he was born and raised.
For six long years I've been in trouble, no pleasure here on earth I've found.
Fo-o-or 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 all new lover I never expect to see you again.
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad, perhaps I'll die upon that train.
--perhaps he'll die upon this train.
You can bury me in sunny valley for many years where I may lay.
A-a-nd you may lear-rrn to love another while I am sleepin in my grave.
--while he is sleepin in his grave.
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger, my face you 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.
