Man of Constant Sorrow 1962
Words and Music by Paul Stookey and Peter Yarrow (©1962)
They wrote it. They need to be credited on all the web sites.
So many bands covered it and made it their own, I feel PPM got lost in the cracks at tab sites and such.
Such luscious interwoven harmony from Peter Paul and Mary. Easy to finger pick intro chords A and D.
So here it is:
Capo 1 (sometimes flat)
Intro A D
A D Bm Em
I am a man of constant sorrow I've seen troubles all my day
A D Bm Em
I'm goin' back to Cali-for-nia place where I was partly raised
A D
All through this world I'm bound to ramble
Bm Em
Through storm and wind Through sleet and rain
A D Bm Em
I'm bound to ride That northern railroad Perhaps I'll take The very next train.
A D Bm Em
Your friends, they say I am a stranger You'll never see My face no more
A D Bm Em
There is just one Promise that's given We'll sail on God's golden shore
A D Bm Em
I am a man of constant sorrow I've seen troubles all my day
A D Bm Em
I'm goin' back to Cali-for-nia Place where I was partly raised
