Soggy Bottom Boys - I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow3 guitar chord

I am a man of Constant Sorrow

By the Soggy Bottom Boys

For the more adventurous in tuning. The tuning is DADGAD tune the high strings down to the proper notes. If you put a capo on the third fret, it sounds good to me.

(All Chords relative to capo on third fret) not sure if these are the right chord names no book in front of me.

D5         G  D5            G

I ...   am a man of constant sorrow

            A7             D5     G  D5

I've seen trou..ble all my days

D5           G  D5            G

I ...   bid farewell to old Kentucky

               A7                  D5

The place where I was born'd and raised

D5              A7                    D5    G  D5

(The place where he.. was born and raised)

D5           G   D5                  G

For ...  six long years I've been in trouble

            A7                 D5   G  D5

No pleasure here on earth I found

D5          G   D5                 G

For ... in this world I'm bound to ramble

              A7                D5

I have no friends to help me down

D5              A7                 D5

(He has no friends to help him down)

D5             G  D5                 G

It'..s   fare thee well my old true lover

            A7              D5    G  D5

I never expect to see you again

D5                G  D5                     G

For ...   I'm bound to ride that northern railroad

             A7                  D5

Perhaps I'll die upon this train

D5              A7                 D5

(Perhaps he'll die upon this train)

D5           G  D5               G

You ...  can bury me in sunny valley

            A7               D5

For many years where I may lay      

D5        G   D5                  G

And ...  you may learn to love another

             A7             D5

While I am sleepin' in my grave

D5           A7                D5

(While he is sleepin' in his grave)

D5               G   D5                 G

Maybe ... your friends think I'm just a stranger

              A7                   D5

My face you never will see no more

D5             G   D5                 G  

But ...  there is one promise that is given

                 A7                 D5

I'll meet you on God's golden shore

D5                A7                  D5

(He'll meet you on God's golden shore)
