Way Downtown chords by Doc Watson

Chords with lyrics

FF         C majorC
Way downtown just fooling around

G7G7         C majorC
They took me to the jail

FF       C majorC
Oh me and it's oh my

G7G7       C majorC
No one to go my bail


  FF            C majorC
It was late last night when Willie came home

G7G7              C majorC
I heard him a-rapping on the door

    FF              C majorC
He's a slipping and a sliding with them new shoes on

G7G7                 C majorC
Momma said Willie don't you rap no more

FF         C majorC
Way downtown just fooling around

G7G7         C majorC
They took me to the jail

FF       C majorC
Oh me and it's oh my

G7G7       C majorC
No one to go my bail


 FF           C majorC
I wish I was over at my sweet Sally's house

G7G7            C majorC
Sitting in that big armed chair

FF          C majorC
One arm around this old guitar

G7G7             C majorC
And the other one around my dear

FF         C majorC
Way downtown just fooling around

G7G7         C majorC
They took me to the jail

FF       C majorC
Oh me and it's oh my

G7G7       C majorC
No one to go my bail


FF             C majorC
Now it?s one old shirt is bout all that I got

G7G7             C majorC
And a dollar is all that I crave

 FF              C majorC
I brought nothing with me into this old world

G7G7               C majorC
Ain't gonna take nothing to my grave


FF         C majorC
Way downtown just fooling around

G7G7         C majorC
They took me to the jail

FF       C majorC
Oh me and it's oh my

G7G7       C majorC
