| I am a man of constant | sorrow, |
| B7 | E | |
| I've seen | trouble all my | day. |

| I bid farewell to old Ken | tucky, |
| B7 | E | |
| The place where | I was born and | raised. |
| B7 | E | |
| - The place where | he was born and | raised. - |
| For six long years I've been in trouble, |
| No pleasures here on earth I found. |
| For in this world I'm bound to ramble, |
| I have no friends to help me now. |
| - He has no friends to help him now. - |
| It's fare thee well my old lover, |
| I never expect to see you again. |
| For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad, |
| Perhaps I'll die upon this train. |
| - Perhaps he'll die upon this train. - |
| You can bury me in some deep valley, |
| For many years where I may lay. |
| Then you may learn to love another, |
| While I am sleeping in my grave. |
| - While he is sleeping in his grave. - |
| Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger, |
| My face you'll never see no more. |
| But there is one promise that is given, |
| I'll meet you on God's golden shore. |
| - He'll meet you on God's golden shore. - |
