Where oh where, can my baby be? The Lord took her, away from me Shes gone to heaven, so I gotta be good So I can see my baby, when I leave this world We were out on a date, in my daddys car We hadnt driven very far There in the road, straight ahead The car was stalled, the engine was dead I couldnt stop, so I swerved to the right Ill never forget the sound that night The crying tires, the bustin glass The painful scream, that I..heard last
(chorus)

Well when I woke up, the rain was pouring down There were people, standing all around Something warm, running in my eyes But I found my baby, somehow that night I raised her head, and then she smiled and said Hold me darling, for a little while I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss I found the love, that I knew I would miss But now shes gone, even though I hold her tight I lost my love, my life, that night

I took up all my winnings, and I gave little Bessie half She tore it up, and threw it in my face, just for a laugh There's one thing in the whole wide world, I sure would like to see That's when that little love of mine, dip's her doughnut in my tea (chorus) Me and my mate we were back at the shack, we had Spike Jones on the box She says, "I can't take the way he sings, but I love to hear him talk" Now that just gave my heart a throb, to the bottom of my feet And I swore as I took another pull, my Bessie can't be beat (chorus) There's a flood out in California, and up norh it's freezing cold And this living on the road is getting pretty old So I guess I'll call up my big mama, tell her I'll be rolling in But you know, deep down, I'm kind of tempted To go and see my Bessie again (chorus)

And Brother said he recollected when he and Tom and Billy Joe Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show And wasnt I talkin to him after church last Sunday night? Ill have another piece a apple pie, you know it just dont seem right I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge And now ya tell me Billy Joes jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge And Mama said to me Child, whats happened to your appetite? Ive been cookin all morning and you havent touched a single bite That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today Said hed be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin off the Tallahatchie Bridge A year has come n gone since we heard the news bout Billy Joe And Brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store in Tupelo There was a virus going round, Papa caught it and he died last spring And now Mama doesnt seem to wanna do much of anything And me, I spend a lot of time pickin flowers up on Choctaw Ridge And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge

Listen children, to a story, that was written long ago Bout a kingdom, on a mountain, and the valley folk below On the mountain, was a treasure, buried deep beneath a stone And the valley people. Swore theyd have it, for their very own
Em F F Em F F F C C C F C

Go ahead and hate your neighbour,

Go ahead and cheat a friend Justify it in the end

Do it in the name of heaven,

There wont be any trumpets blowin, Come the judgement day On the bloody morning after,

One tin soldier rides away

So the people of the valley, sent a message up the hill Asking for the buried treasure, tons of gold for which theyd kill Came an answer from the kingdom, With our brothers we will share All the secrets of our mountain, all the riches buried there
(chorus) C F C F G C G C Am Dm7 Am Dm7 C F C G

Now the valley cried with anger, mount your horses, draw your sword And they killed the mountain people, so they won their just reward Now they stood beside the treasure, on the mountain, dark and red Turned the stone and looked beneath it, Peace on Earth was all it said

Note: Amaj7 is a D7 one string lower A E7 Amaj7 E7 Bm A Amaj7 Bm A

Be-neath this snowy mantle cold and clean The unborn grass lies waiting for it's coat to turn to green The snowbird sings the song he always sings And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring.
A E7 Amaj7 E7 Bm A Amaj7 Bm A

When I was young, my heart was young then, too Anything that it would tell me, thats' the thing that I would do But now I feel such emptiness within For the thing that I want most in life is the thing that I can't win.
A E7 Amaj7 E7 Bm A Amaj7 Bm A

Spread your tiny wings and fly away And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day The one I love forever is untrue And if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.
A E7 Amaj7 E7 (chorus) E7 Bm A Amaj7 Bm A

The breeze along the river seems to say That she'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay So little snowbird take me with you when you go To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow.
D A

Yea! if I could you know that I would fly ...... ..... away with you.

Frosty the Snow Man, was a jolly happy soul With a corn-cob pipe and a button nose, and two eyes made out of coal Frosty the Snow Man is a fairy tale they say, He was made of snow But the children know how he came to life one day There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found For when they put it on his head he began to dance around Oh, Frosty the Snow Man was alive as he could be And the children say he could laugh and play just the same as you and me Frosty the Snow Man knew the sun was hot that day So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun, now before I melt away." Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand, Running here and there all around the square, saying "Catch me if you can." He led them down the streets of town right to the traffic cop And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler, "Stop!" For Frosty the Snow Man had to hurry on his way But he waved good-bye, saying, "Don't you cry; I'll be back again some day." Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go. Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

Nobody seemed to know where John called home He just drifted into town and stayed all alone He didn't say much, kinda quiet and shy And if you spoke at all, you just said "Hi" to Big John. Somebody said he came from New Orleans Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand Sent a Loosiana fellow to the Promised Land-Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Then came the day at the bottom of the mine When a timber cracked and men started cryin' Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast And everybody thought that they'd breathed their last-'cept John Through the dust and the smoke of this man-made hell Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well Grabbed a saggin' timber, gave out with a groan And like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone-Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove Then a miner yelled out "There's a light up above!" And twenty men scrambled from a would-be grave Now there's only one left down there to save-Big John With jacks and timbers they started back down Then came that rumble way down in the ground And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Now they never reopened that worthless pit They just placed a marble stand in front of it These few words are written on that stand At the bottom of this mine lies one hell of a man Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

G My daddy left home when I was three C And he didnt leave much to Ma and me D G Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze G Now, I dont blame him cause he run and hid C But the meanest thing, that he ever did D G Was before he left, he went and named me Sue

Well he must o thought that it was quite a joke And it got a lot of laughs from a lots of folk It seems I had to fight my whole life through Some gal would giggle and Id get red And some guyd laugh and Id bust his head I tell ya, life aint easy for a boy named Sue Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean My fists got hard and my wits got keen Id roam from town to town to hide my shame But I made me a vow to the moon and stars That Id search the honky tonks and bars And kill that man that give me that awful name Well it was Gatlinburg in mid July And I just hit town and my throat was dry I thought Id stop and have myself a brew At an old saloon on a street of mud There at a table, dealin stud Sat that dirty, mangy dog that named me Sue Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad From a worn out picture that my mother had And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye He was big and bent and gray and old And I looked at him and my blood ran cold And I said, My name is Sue, how do you do?, Now you gonna die?

Page 2

Well I hit him hard right between the eyes And he went down, but to my surprise He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear But I busted a chair, right across his teeth And we crashed through the wall and into the street Kicking and a gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer I tell ya, Ive fought tougher men But I really cant remember when He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile I heard him laugh and then I heard him curse He went for his gun and I pulled mine first He stood there lookin at me, and I saw him smile And he said, Son this world is rough And if a mans gonna make it, hes gotta be tough And I knew I wouldnt be there to help you along So I gave you that name, and I said goodbye I knew youd have to get tough or die And its that name that helped to make you strong He said, Now you just fought one hell of a fight And I know you hate me, and you got the right To kill me now, and I wouldnt blame you if you do But ya oughta thank me, before I die For the gravel in your guts, and the spit in your eye Cause Im the son of a bitch that named you Sue I got all choked up, and I threw down my gun And I called him my pa, and he called me son And I come away with a different point of view And I think about him, now and then Every time I try, and every time I win And if I ever have a son, I think Im gonna name him Bill or George, anything but Sue, I still hate that name

D G D On a warm summers evenin, on a train bound for nowhere A I met up with a gambler, we were both too tired to sleep D G D So we took turns starin out the window at the darkness G G A D Til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak D G D He said Son, Ive made a life out of readin peoples faces A And knowin what their cards were by the way they held their eyes D G D And if you dont mind me sayin, I can see youre out of aces G D A D For a taste of your whiskey, Ill give you some advice D G D So I handed him my bottle, and he drank down my last swallow A Then he bummed a cigarette, and asked me for a light D G D And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression G D A D Said, if youre gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right D G D You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em G D A Know when to walk away, and know when to run D Em/A D G D You never count your money, when youre sittin at the table G D A D Therell be time enough for countin, when the dealins done (key change) Every gambler knows, that the secret to survivin Is knowin what to throw away, and knowin what to keep Cause every hands a winner, and every hands a loser And the best that you can hope or is to die in your sleep And when hed finished speakin, he turned back towards the window Crushed out his cigarette, and faded off to sleep And somewhere in the darkness, the gambler he broke even But in his final words, I found an ace that I could keep (chorus twice)

THE UNEASY RIDER

C F I was takin' a trip out to L.A. , Toolin' along in my Chevrolet G7 C Tokin' on a number and diggin' on the radi- o ... C Just as I crossed the Mississippi line F I heard that highway start to whine G7 C And I knew that left rear tire was about to go. Well, the spare was flat and I got uptight, 'Cause there wasn't a fillin' station in sight So I just limped on down the shoulder on the rim I went as far as I could and when I stopped the car It was right in front of this little bar Kind of redneck lookin' joint, called the Dew Drop Inn. Well, I stuffed my hair up under my hat , And told the bartender that I had a flat And would he be kind enough to give me change for a one There was one thing I was sure proud to see There wasn't a soul in the place, 'cept for him and me And he just looked disgusted and pointed toward the telephone. I called up the station down the road a ways, And he said he wasn't very busy today And he could have somebody there in just 'bout ten minutes or so He said now you just stay right where you're at And I didn't bother tellin' the durn fool I sure as hell didn't have anyplace else to go. I just ordered up a beer and sat down at the bar , When some guy walked in and said; "Who owns this car? With the peace sign, the mag wheels and four on the floor?" Well, he looked at me and I damn near died And I decided that I'd just wait outside So I layed a dollar on the bar and headed for the door. Just when I thought I'd get outta there with my skin, These five big dudes come strollin' in With this one old drunk chick and some fella with green teeth And I was almost to the door when the biggest one Said; "You tip your hat to this lady, son." And when I did all that hair fell out from underneath. Now the last thing I wanted was to get into a fight , In Jackson, Mississippi on a Saturday night 'Specially when there was three of them and only one of me They all started laughin' and I felt kinda sick And I knew I'd better think of somethin' pretty quick So I just reached out and kicked old green-teeth right in the knee.
Uneasy Rider by The Charlie Daniels Band

He let out a yell that'd curl your hair , But before he could move, I grabbed me a chair And said; "Watch him folks, 'cause he's a thouroughly dangerous man." "Well, you may not know it, but this man's a spy He's an undercover agent for the FBI And he's been sent down here to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan." He was still bent over, holdin' on to his knee, But everyone else was lookin' and listenin' to me And I layed it on thicker and heavier as I went I said; "Would you beleive this man has gone as far As tearin' Wallace stickers off the bumpers of cars And he voted for George McGovern for president." "He's a friend of them long-haired, hippie type, pinko fags, Commie flag Tacked up on the wall, inside of his garage He's a snake in the grass, I tell ya guys He may look dumb, but that's just a disguise He's a mastermind in the ways of espionage." I betcha he's even got a

They all started lookin' real suspicious at him, And he jumped up an' said; "Now, just wait a minute, Jim You know he's lyin' I've been livin' here all of my life." "I'm a faithfull follower of Brother John Birch And I belong to the Antioch Baptist Church And I ain't even got a garage, you can call home and ask my wife." Then he started sayin' somethin' 'bout the way I was dressed, I didn't wait around to hear the rest I was too busy movin' and hopin' I didn't run outta luck And when I hit the ground, I was makin' tracks And they were just takin' my car down off the jacks So I threw the man a twenty an' jumped in an' fired that mother up. Mario Andretti woulda sure been proud, Of the way I was movin' when I passed that crowd Comin' out the door and headin' toward me in a trot And I guess I should-a gone ahead and run But somehow I couldn't resist the fun Of chasin' them all just once around the parkin' lot. Well, they're headin' for their car, but I hit the gas, And spun around and headed them off at the pass I was slingin' gravel and puttin' a ton of dust in the air Ha Ha, well, I had 'em all out there steppin' and fetchin' Like their heads were on fire and their asses was catchin' But I figured I oughta go ahead an split before the cops got there. When I hit the road I was really wheelin' , Had gravel flyin' and rubber squeelin' And I didn't slow down 'til I was almost to Arkansas Well, I think I'm gonna re-route my trip I wonder if anybody'd think I'd flipped If I went to L.A. - via Omaha.

Horse With No Name

Em D6/9 Em D6/9 On the first part of the journey, I was looking at all the life

There were plants and birds and rocks and things, There was sand and hills and rings The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz, The heat was hot and the ground was dry, And the sky with no clouds But the air was full of sounds

Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name Cause there aint no one for to give you no pain La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la (repeat 5 or 6 times final chorus)

After two days in the desert sun, After three days in the desert fun, And the story it told of a river that flowed, (chorus)

My skin began to turn red I was looking at a riverbed Made me sad to think it was dead

After nine days I let the horse run free,

Cause the desert had turned to sea

There was plants and birds and rocks and things, There were sand and hills and rings The ocean is a desert with its life underground, Under the cities, lies a heart made of ground, (chorus)

Capo 3

G D G Riding on the City of New Orleans Em C G Illinois Central Monday morning rail G D G Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders, Em D G Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail Em Bm All along the southbound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kankakee D A And rolls along past houses, farms and fields Em Bm Passing trains that have no name, freight yards of old black men D D7 G And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles.

C D7 G Good morning America, how are you? Em C G D7 Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son. G D Em I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans F C D G And I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

G D G Dealing card games with the old men in the club car Em C G Penny a point ain't no-one keeping score G D G Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle Em D G Feel the wheels rumbling 'neath the floor Em Bm And the sons of Pullman porters, and the sons of engineers D A Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel Em Bm Mothers with their babes asleep, rocking to the gentle beat D D7 G And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel.

Dm Bb C Dm Ten thousand souls was the opening bid, soon went up to fifty-nine, Bb A7 But the Lord didnt see what the devil did, and He said that suits me fine Bb C A7 Dm Ill raise you high to a hundred and five, and forever put an end to your sins Bb C But the devil let out a mighty shout Dm My hand wins!! Bb C Dm And I Said, Lord, oh Lord, You let him win, Bb C Dm The sun is down, and the night is riding in, Bb A7 Dm Gm That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line, Bb A7 Dm Oh Lord, dont let him win

The legend lives on, from the Chippewa on down, of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee The lake it is said, never gives up her dead, When the skies of November turn gloomy With a load of iron ore, twenty-six thousand tons more, Than the Edmund Fitzgld weighed empty That big ship and true, was a bone to be chewed, When the Gales of November came early The ship was the pride, of the American side, coming back from some mill in Wisconsin As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most, With a crew and good captain well seasoned Concluding some terms, with a couple of steel firms, When they left fully loaded for Cleveland And later that night, when the ships bell rang, Could it be the north wind theyd been feeling?
(chord chorus)

The wind in the wires, made a tattletale sound, And a wave broke over the railing And every man knew, as the captain did too, Twas the witch of November come stealin The dawn came late, and the breakfast had to wait, When the Gales of November came slashin When afternoon came, it was freezing rain, In the face of a hurricane west wind
(chord chorus)

When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin, Fellas, its too rough to feed ya At seven P.M., a main hatchway caved in, he said, Fellas, its been good to know ya The captain wired in, he had water comin in, And the big ship and crew was in peril And later that night, when its lights went outta sight, Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
(chord chorus)

Does anyone know, where the love of God goes, When the waves turn the minutes to hours? The searchers all say, theyd have made Whitefish Bay, If theyd put fifteen more miles, behind her They might have split up, or they might have capsized, They may have broke deep, and took water And all that remains, is the faces and the names, Of the wives, and the sons, and the daughters
(chord chorus)

Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings, In the rooms of her ice-water mansion Old Michigan steams, like a young mans dreams, The islands and bays are for sportsmen And farther below, Lake Ontario, Takes in what Lake Erie can send her And the iron boats go, as the mariners all know, With the Gales of November remembered
(chord chorus)

In a musty old hall, in Detroit they prayed, In the Maritime Sailors cathedral The church bell chimed, till it rang twenty-nine times, For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald The legend lives on, from the Chippewa on down, Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee Superior they said, never gives up her dead, When the Gales of November come early

Well, Friday 'bout a week ago, Leroy's shootin' dice. And at the edge of the bar sat a girl name of Doris and oh, that girl look nice Well, he cast his eyes upon her, And the trouble soon began. And Leroy Brown, he learned a lesson 'bout messin' with the wife of a jealous man

Well, the two men took to fightin', And when they pulled them from the floor, Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone.

Yes, you were badder than old King Kong, And meaner than a junkyard dog.

Tijuana Jail
G C G We went one day, about a month ago D G To have a little fun, in Mexi-co C G We ended up, in the gambling spot D G Where the liquor flowed, and the dice were hot

C G So here we are, in the Tijuana jail D G Ain't got no friends, to go our bail C G So here we'll stay, cause we can't pay D G Just send our mail, to the Tijuana jail

C G I was shooting dice, racking in the dough (long green) D G And then I heard, the whistle blow C G We started to run, when a man in blue D G Said "Senior come with me cause I want you." (chorus)

C G Just five hundred dollars, and they'll set us free D G I couldn't raise a penny, if you threatened me C G I know five hundred don't sound like much (cheap) D G But just try to find, somebody to touch (chorus twice)
Tijuana Jail by The Kingston Trio from Once Upon A Time 1969

Tom Dooley
Spoken: Throughout history there have been many songs written about the eternal triangle. This next one tells the story about a Mr. Grayson, a beautiful woman and a condemmed man named Tom Dooley. When the sun rises tomorrow Tom Dooley must hang.

E Hang down your head Tom Dooley, B7 Hang down your head Tom Dooley,

B7 Hang down your head and cry E Poor boy you're bound to die

E I met her on the mountain, B7 I met her on the mountain, (chorus)

B7 There I took her life E Stabbed her with my knife

E This time tomorrow, B7 Hadn't a been for Grayson, (chorus twice)

B7 reckon where I'll be E I'd a been in Tennesee

E B7 This time tomorrow, reckon where I be B7 E Down in some lonesome valley, hanging from a white oak tree

Tom Dooley by The Kingston Trio from their first album The Kingston Trio 1958

Puff the magic dragon, lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah-Lee / Honah-Lee

Little Jackie Paper, loved that rascal Puff And brought him strings and sealing wax, and other fancy stuff Oh (chorus 2x)
A D A D A E7 A D D E7 D D E7 A E7 A A

Together they would travel, on a boat with billowed sails Jackie kept a lookout perched, on Puffs gigantic tail Noble kings and princes, would bow when ere they came Pirate ships would lower their flags, when Puff roared out his name Oh (chorus 2x)
A D A D A D A D A E7 A D D E7 E7 A E7 A E7 D D D E7 A A D E7 A D A D E7 A A

A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys Painted wings and giants rings, make way for other toys One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain Puff no longer went to play, along the cherry lane Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave So Puff that mighty dragon, sadly slipped into his cave Oh (chorus)

G D

So you went to Memphis, and you did the things you wanted Came up to Winnipeg, and slept out in the zoo
D G A D

Took a load to Kansas, and went west to paint the rockies When you reached the coast, your friends were waiting there for you In and out of a love affair, that left you feeling empty
D D

Had an urge to call me, but you couldnt beat your pride So you caught a bus, and headed back out toward the prairies Got off in Moosejaw cause you couldnt quite decide
D D

If it was me you were running from or you And were the things that they told you really true
D D D G A D

So you thought youd venture down, and visit San Francisco Drifted with some friends, on a beach near Monterey Back up through the Golden Gate, and into Sasalito Vancouver Island must have seemed so far away
G G G G A7 A7 G G D D G G A D D D D D D

Then you decked yourself out in the latest eastern fashion Took a plane to LA and you worked some local bar Ended up on board a yacht that docked somewhere near Portland Came ashore just long enough to mail me a card Yes and you still havent found whats really you And I wonder when your running will be through Your running will be through

D Em I like the way, that your hair falls away, when the night brings a candle to you A D And I like to stare, as you come down the stair, when the light from the landing shines through D Em How many fallen leaves, will it take to believe, That autumn has finally come A D The weathers grown colder, and weve both grown older, its hard to believe were still one G F#m Lets dance that old dance once more Em F#m We still move as smooth on that old ballroom floor G F#m Ill wear my Sunday best and you wear your favorite dress Em A D Lock up the door, lets dance that old dance once more D Em You hung around, and kept my feet on the ground, when I acted as proud as a fool A D We were kids and weve grown, We got kids of our own, That we got to raise by the old golden rule D Em But somehow it seems, that some of our dreams, got discarded somewhere on the road A D When all that was true, could be found in the blue, of your eyes that still sparkle and glow Chorus D Em The frost king has come, and with a flick of his thumb, has turned the windows to renaissance art A D As we sit round the fire, with no need to inquire, about the ways of the soul and the heart D Em The years passed us by, like a soft whispered sigh, not noticing youth as it flew A D Chorus Its easy to tell, that you wear your age well, not trying to prove youre still you

A A A A

In A - orig key D

A Lazy yellow moon comin' up tonight shinin' through the trees D Crickets are singin' and lightnin' bugs are floatin' in the breeze A Baby get ready A Across the field where the creek bends back by the old stump road D I'm gonna take you to a special place that nobody knows A E Baby get ready, ooo ooo A You and me go fishin' in the dark Lyin' on our backs and countin' the stars D Where the cool grass grows A Down by the river in the full moonlight We'll be fallin' in love in the middle of the night D Just movin' slow E Spend the whole night through A Feels so good to be with you A Springs almost over and the summers comin', the days are gettin' long D Waitin' all winter for the time to be right just to take you along A Baby get ready A It don't matter if we sit forever and the fish don't bite D Jump in the river and cool ourselves from the heat of the night A E Baby get ready, ooo ooo (chorus) (repeat chorus and fade)
