D           A                      D 
In constant sorrow all through his days 
[Verse 1]
D                      G
I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow 

          A              D *
I've seen trouble all my day. 

                         G
I bid farewell to old Kentucky 

                A              D
The place where I was born and raised. 

                A               D
The place where he was born and raised 
[Verse 2]
D                               G
For six long years I've been in trouble 

             A               D
No pleasures here on earth I found 

                               G
For in this world I'm bound to ramble 

          A                  D
I have no friends to help me now. 

          A                   D
He has no friends to help him now 
[Verse 3]
D                          G
It's fare thee well my old lover 

          A                D
I never expect to see you again 

                                    G
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad 

             A             D
Perhaps I'll die upon this train. 

              A             D
Perhaps he'll die upon this train. 
[Verse 4]
D                            G
You can bury me in some deep valley 

         A                 D
For many years where I may lay 

                            G
Then you may learn to love another 

           A              D
While I am sleeping in my grave. 

            A               D
While he is sleeping in his grave. 
[Verse 5]
D                                   G
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger 

               A            D
My face you'll never see no more. 

                                 G
But there is one promise that is given 

              A               D
I'll meet you on God's golden shore. 

               A               D
He'll meet you on God's golden shore..
* To spice this song up, try adding Dsus4 after most of the D chords *** Alternates: Capo I D = E A = B G = A Open D = F A = C G = Bb Capo V D = C A = G G = F ** It has been suggested that tab be played in Drop D Set8
