[G]
[C] I am a man of [F] constant sorrow [G] I've seen trouble all [C] my day
I bid farewell to [F] old Kentucky A state [G] where I was born [C] and raised
For six long years I've been [F] in trouble No [G] pleasure here on earth [C] I've found
Far in this world I'm [F] bound to ramble [Cm] I have [G] no friend to help [C] me now
[Fm] [F] [G]

[G] [C]
It's farewell my old [F] lover I never [G] expect to see [C] you again
For I'm bound to ride by the Northern [F]
Railroad Perhaps [G] I'll not come [C] to stay
Maybe your friends say I'm just a [F] stranger I'll face [G] you never will see [C] you more
But there is one promise that [F] is given I'll meet [G] you on God's golden [C] shore
