Doc Watson – Way Downtown (Guitar)

F                 C
Way downtown just fooling around

G7                  C
They took me to the jail

F              C
Oh me and it's oh my

G7              C
No one to go my bail

   F                        C
It was late last night when Willie came home

G7                           C
I heard him a-rapping on the door

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

G7                                 C
Momma said Willie don't you rap no more

F                 C
Way downtown just fooling around

G7                  C
They took me to the jail

F              C
Oh me and it's oh my

G7              C
No one to go my bail

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

G7                        C
Sitting in that big armed chair

F                   C
One arm around this old guitar

G7                          C
And the other one around my dear

F                 C
Way downtown just fooling around

G7                  C
They took me to the jail

F              C
Oh me and it's oh my

G7              C
No one to go my bail

F                         C
Now it’s one old shirt is bout all that I got

G7                         C
And a dollar is all that I crave

  F                            C
I brought nothing with me into this old world

G7                             C
Ain't gonna take nothing to my grave

F                 C
Way downtown just fooling around

G7                  C
They took me to the jail

F              C
Oh me and it's oh my

G7              C
No one to go my bail
