Pete Seeger – Lonesome Valley (Guitar)

E                            E
You gotta walk that lonesome valley,

          B7             E
You gotta walk it by yourself,

       A                E
Nobody here can walk it for you,

          E       B7     E
You gotta walk it by yourself.

E                               E
Some people say that John was a Baptist,

           B7           E
Some folks say he was a Jew,

         A              E
But your holy scripture tells you

        E     B7       E
That he was a preacher too.

E                  E
Daniel was a Bible hero,

      B7                E
Was a prophet brave and true,

     A             E
In a den of hungry lions

            E         B7     E
Proved what faith can do for you.

E                            E
There's a road that leads to glory

          B7         E
Through a valley far away,

       A                E
Nobody else can walk it for you,

         E    B7        E
They can only point the way.

E                         E
Mamma and daddy loves you dearly,

       B7                E
Sister does and brother, too,

         A                  E
They may beg you to go with them,

         E      B7     E
But they cannot go for you.

E                            E
I'm gonna walk that lonesome valley,

          B7         E
I'm gonna walk it by myself,

           A         E
Don't want nobody to walk it for me,

          E       B7   E
I'm gonna walk it by myself.
