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
AI am a man of constant sDorrow I've seen Bmtroubles all my Emday
I'm goin' Aback to Cali-Dfor-nia place whereBm I was partly Emraised
All through this wAorld I'm bound to rDamble
Through storm and Bmwind Through sleet and Emrain
I'm bound to Aride That northern Drailroad Perhaps I'll Bmtake The very next Emtrain.
Your friends, they Asay I am a sDtranger You'll never Bmsee My face no Emmore
There is just Aone Promise that's Dgiven We'll sailBm on God's golden sEmhore
I am a Aman of constant Dsorrow I've seen Bmtroubles all my Emday
I'm goin' bAack to Cali-fDor-nia Place where BmI was partly rEmaised
