The Carter Sisters & Carlene Carter - Worried Man Blues chords
Start Jamming...
You girls still sing foggy mountaintop.
Yeah, anytime anybody asks it.
Hand me what is it?
Gold watch and chain?
We sing that one too.
What's in your new album?
Did you do any old songs?
We did several old ones.
Majority of old ones.
We do have some new ones in there though.
What are some of the old tunes?
Well, we did
We did worried men blues
The storms are on the ocean which Anita did.
We did Dixie darling which is in there.
The wildwood flower
The album's gonna be called the wildwood flower by the way
On the banks of the Ohio.
Are you singing the wildwood flower?
We're singing and we're singing it a lot of verses it has about 125.
What's that line about the myrtle?
The myrtle's so bright with the emerald dew
[C] [G] The pale and the leader and eyes [Fm] look like [C] Ralph Emery
[G]
The words are a little strange.
They're old-timey words.
They're old-timey probably English Irish Scottish words
All round into one verse.
Let's take one tune out of the album.
Let's take the worried man blues
All right.
Here's the fabulous Carter [C] family
[G] [B] [C]
[F] [C]
Sing words on the [G] worried man, but it won't be [C] worried long
No I won't cross the river, I lay down to sleep
[F] I won't cross the river, I lay [C] down to sleep
I won't cross the river, I lay down to sleep
And I woke [G] up with shackles [C] on my feet
For it only takes two worried men to sing a worried song
[F] [C]
It takes two words and it's three words, I'm [G] worried now, but I won't be [C] worried long.
[F] [C]
[G] [C]
I got 29 links of chain around my legs, [F] well there's 29 links of chain around [C] my legs,
well there's 29 links of chain around my legs, and [G] on each link there's a couple [C] of my name.
Well it takes two words and it's three words, [F] I'm, it takes two words and it's three [C] words, I'm,
it takes two words and it's three words, I'm [G] worried now, but I won't be [C] worried long.
[Cm] [Em]
[F] If anyone should ask you, who composed this song?
[Bb] If anyone should ask you, who composed [F] this song?
If anyone should ask you, who composed this song?
Tell [C] you I, sing it all [F] night long.
Well it takes two words and it's three words, [Cm] [Bb]
I'm, it takes two words and it's three [F] words, I'm,
it takes [C] two words and it's three words, I'm, I'm worried now, but I won't be [F] worried long.
[C] I'm worried now, but I won't be [F] worried long.
