1.) "Cry Cry Cry"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
A E B7 E
[Verse 1]
Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
I think you only live to see the lights of town
I wasted my time when I would try, try, try
'cause when the lights have lost their glow, you'll cry, cry, cry
[Verse 2]
E
Soon your sugar daddies will all be gone
You'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone
You'll call for me, but I'm gonna tell you, "Bye, bye, bye"
When I turn around and walk away, you'll cry, cry, cry
[Chorus]
You're gonna cry, cry, cry; and you'll cry alone
When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own
you're gonna cry, cry, cry
[Solo]
E A E B7 E
[Verse 3]
I lie awake at night to wait 'til you come in
You stay a little while and then you're gone again
Every question that I ask I get a lie, lie, lie
For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry
[Verse 4]
When your fickle love gets old, no one will care for you
Then you'll come back to me for a little love that's true
I'll tell you, "No" and then you'll ask me, "why, why, why?"
When I remind you of all of this you'll cry, cry, cry
[Chorus]
You're gonna cry, cry, cry; and you'll want me then
It'll hurt when you think of the fool you've been
you're gonna cry, cry, cry
[Outro]
A E B7 E

2.) "Hey Porter"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
Hey, porter! Hey, porter! Would you tell me the time?
How much longer will it be 'til we cross that Mason-Dixon line?
At daylight, would you tell that engineer to slow it down?
Or better still, just stop the train 'cause I want to look around
[Verse 2]
Hey, porter! Hey, porter! What time did you say?
How much longer will it be 'til I can see the light of day?
When we hit Dixie, will you tell that engineer to ring his bell
And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell?
[Guitar Solo]
E
E A
[Verse 3]
Hey, porter! Hey, porter! It's getting light outside
This old train is puffing smoke and I have to strain my eyes
But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle, please
'cause I smell frost on cotton leaves, and I feel that southern breeze
[Verse 4]
Hey, porter! Hey, porter! Please get my bags for me
I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee
Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream
We're not so far from home, so take it easy on the steam
[Guitar Solo]
E
E A
[Verse 5]
Hey, porter! Hey, porter! Please open up the door
When they stop this train, I'm gonna get off first 'cause I can't wait no more
Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot and I didn't mind the fare
I'm gonna set my feet on southern soil and breathe that southern air
[Outro]
E

3.) "Folsom Prison Blues"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
B7 E
[Verse 1]
I hear the train a-coming, it's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, and time keeps dragging on
But that train keeps a-rolling on down to San Antone
[Verse 2]
When I was just a baby, my Mama told me, "Son,
E
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns"
But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry
[Solo]
E
A E
B7 E
[Verse 3]
I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big cigars
Well, I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
But those people keep a-moving, and that's what tortures me
[Solo]
E
A E
B7 E
[Verse 4]
Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
A E
Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
4.) "So Doggone Lonesome"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
B7 E
[Verse 1]
I do my best to hide this lowdown feeling
I try to make believe there's nothing wrong
But they're always asking me about you, darling
And it hurts me so to tell them that you're gone
[Verse 2]
If they ask me, I guess I'd be denying
That I've been unhappy all alone
But if they heard my heart, they'd hear it crying,
E B7 E
"Where's my darling, when's she coming home?"
[Chorus 1]
I ask myself a million times what's right for me to do
To try to lose my blues alone or hang around for you
Well, I make it pretty good until that moon comes shining through
And then I get so doggone lonesome
[Guitar Solo]
A B7 E
A B7 E
A B7 E
B7 E
[Verse 3]
E
Time stands still when your awaiting
Sometimes I think my heart is stopping too
E A
One lonely hour seems forever
E B7 E
Sixty minutes more to wait for you
[Verse 4]
But I guess I'll keep waiting 'til you're with me
'cause I believe that loving you is right
But I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow
If I can't have you with me tonight
[Chorus 2]
Well, I know I'll keep on loving you 'cause true love can't be killed
I ought to get you off of my mind but I guess I never will
I could have a dozen others but I know I'd love you still
'cause I get so doggone lonesome
[Outro]
B7 E
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.) "I Walk the Line"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
A D A E
B7 E
[Verse 1]
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
A
[Verse 2]
I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line
D
[Verse 3]
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line
A
[Verse 4]
You've got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line
E
[Verse 5]
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6.) "Get Rhythm"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Chorus]
N.C. E
Hey, get rhythm... when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm... when you get the blues
Get a rock 'n' roll feeling in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
[Verse 1]
A little shoe-shine boy, he never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
E
Bending low at the peoples' feet
On the windy corner of a dirty street
E
When I asked him while he shined my shoe
E
How'd he keep from getting the blues?
He grinned as he raised his little head
He popped his shoe-shine rag and then he said
[Chorus]
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm... when you get the blues
A jumping rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all your trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
[Guitar Solo]
E
A
E
A B7 E
[Chorus 1]
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm... when you get the blues
Get a rock 'n' roll feeling in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
[Verse 2]
Well, I sat and I listened to the shoe-shine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
E
Slapped on the shoe polish left and right
He took his shoe-shine rag and he held it tight
E
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said, "You mighty, little boy, to be a-working that way"
He said, "I like it" with a big wide grin
E
Kept on a-popping and he say it again
[Chorus 3]
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm... when you get the blues
It only costs a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm... when you get the blues
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
7.) "There You Go"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
N.C. E
You're gonna break another heart
You're gonna tell another lie
E A
[Verse 1]
Well, here I am and there you go, you're gone again
I know you're gonna be the way you've always been
D A E A
Breaking hearts and telling lies is all you know
Another guy gives you the eye and... there you go
[Chorus]
There you go, you're gone again
I should have known I couldn't win
There you go, you're by his side
You're gonna break another heart
You're gonna tell another lie
[Guitar Solo]
D A E A
[Verse 2]
Because I love you so, I take much more than I should take
I want you even though I know my heart is gonna break
You build me up and for a while I'm all aglow
Then your fickle heart sees someone else and... there you go
[Chorus]
There you go, you're gone again
I should have known I couldn't win
There you go, you're by his side
You're gonna break another heart
You're gonna tell another lie
[Outro]
E A

[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]

Train of love's a-coming, big black wheels a-humming

People waiting at the station, happy hearts are drumming
E
Train man, tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby?
[Chorus]
B7
Every so often, everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
But everybody's baby but mine's coming home
[Verse 2]
Now, stop your whistle blowing, 'cause I've got ways of knowing,
You're bringing other people's lovers but my own keeps going

Train of love deceiving, when she's not gone she's leaving
[Chorus]

But everybody's baby but mine's coming home

Train of love's a-leaving, leaving my heart grieving
But early or late, I sit and wait because I'm still believing
We'll walk away together, though I may wait forever
[Chorus]

Every so often, everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
But everybody's baby but mine's coming home

------
[Intro]
E A
[Verse 1]
You take my hand and smile at me
But I can tell you'd rather be
D E A E
Alone or with somebody else you know
And when your eyes look into mine
That old time love light doesn't shine
D E A A7
But let me try again, don't make me go
[Chorus]
I want you, don't make me go
My heart would break, I'd miss you so
Trading love for sympathy is old to me
What's this lovesick heart to do
When it cries for only you
Hold me close, I love you so, don't make me go
[Guitar Solo]
D A E A
[Verse 2]
I'm sorry that I never knew
The way to show my love for you
D E A E
I took too much for granted all the time
Two hearts in love must give and take
When one heart fails, the other breaks
D E A A7
Don't make me go, I want to show this love of mine
[Chorus]
I want you, don't make me go
My heart would break, I'd miss you so
Trading love for sympathy is old to me
What's this lovesick heart to do
When it cries for only you
Hold me close, I love you so, don't make me go

I'll make you love me more than everyone before
It's my time to try cause I'm the next in line

If you can wade in through the teardrops
You'll find me at the home of the blues

And it seems there's no good way to choose

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
A E A
[Verse 1]
I found him by the railroad track this morning.
I could see that he was nearly dead.
D A
I knelt down beside him and I listened
Just to hear the words the dying fellow said.
He said, "They let me out of prison out in Frisco.
For ten long years, I've paid for what I've done.
I was trying to get back to Louisiana
To see my Rose and get to know my son.
[Chorus]
D A
Give my love to Rose, please, won't you mister?
E A
Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes.
D A
Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him,
And don't forget to give my love to Rose.
[Verse 2]
Won't you tell them I said thanks for waiting for me?
A E A
Tell my boy to help his mom at home.
D A
Tell my Rose to try to find another
'cause it ain't right that she should live alone.
A E A
Mister, here's a bag with all my money.
A E A
It won't last them long the way it goes.
D A
God bless you for finding me this morning.
Now don't forget to give my love to Rose.
[Chorus]
D A
Give my love to Rose, please, won't you mister?
E A
Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes.

Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him,
And don't forget to give my love to Rose."

[Chorus]
A D A
(Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
D A E A
Prettiest girl we've ever seen)
[Verse 1]
There's a story in our town
Of the prettiest girl a-round
Golden hair and eyes of blue
How those eyes could flash at you
(How those eyes could flash at you)
[Chorus]
D A
Boys hung 'round her by the score
But she loved the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
A D A
(Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
D A E A
Prettiest girl we've ever seen)
[Verse 2]
She was tops in all they said
It never once went to her head
She had everything it seems
Not a care, this teenage queen
(Not a care, this teenage queen)
[Chorus]
D A
Other boys could offer more
But she loved the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
(Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
D A E A
You should be a movie queen)
[Verse 3]
He would marry her next spring
Saved his money, bought a ring
Then one day a movie scout
Came to town to take her out
(Came to town to take her out)
[Chorus]
D A
Hollywood could offer more
So she left the boy next door
Working at the candy store
(Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
D A E A
See you on the movie screen)
[Verse 4]
Very soon she was a star
Pretty house and shiny cars
Swimming pool and a fence a-round
But she missed her old hometown
(But she missed her old hometown)
[Chorus]
D A
All the world was at her door
All except the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
(Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
D A E A
Saddest girl we've ever seen)
[Verse 5]
Then one day the teenage star
Sold her house and all her cars
Gave up all her wealth and fame
Left it all and caught a train
(Left it all and caught a train)
[Chorus]
D A
Do I have to tell you more
She came back to the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
(Now this story has some more
You'll hear it all at the candy store)

14.) "Big River"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavorting in Davenport
And I followed you, Big River, when you called
[Bridge]
E A E
B7 E
[Verse 2]
Then you took me to St. Louis later on, down the river
A freighter said, "She's been here, but she's gone, boy, she's gone"
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf
E B7 E
She loves you, Big River, more than me
[Bridge]
E A E
B7 E
[Verse 3]
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die

She said, "Come in, stranger
It's good to have you home
I hurried through 'cause I knew it was you
When I saw your dog wagging his tail
A E
Honey, why didn't you let me know by mail?
F#7 B7
[Verse 2]
She said, "Come in, stranger
I know you're weary from all the miles
Just sit right there in your easy chair
And tell me all about the places you've been
How long it'll be before you leave again
I hope it's a long, long while"
[Verse 3]
She said, "Come in, stranger
Everything around home is fine
I've watched and I've waited for you to get back
And I missed you all the time"
[Guitar Solo]
E B7 E
A E B7 E
[Verse 4]
She said, "Come in, stranger
Oh, how I miss you when you're gone
I walk the floor and I watch the door
And when I lay awake and wonder where you could be
I'd give anything to have you here with me
I get so lonesome all alone"
[Verse 5]
She said, "Come in, stranger
And won't you listen to my plea?
Stay long enough so that the one I love
Is not a stranger to me"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
E A
[Verse 1]
You've cut out your dancing, and you never see a show
Your friends come by to pick you up and you hardly ever go
It seems your head is in the clouds above
You've got the ways of a woman in love
[Verse 2]
I walk by your house at night and hope that I might see
The guy who's got you in a spin, I wish that guy was me.
I don't know why it's you I'm dreaming of
You've got the ways of a woman in love
[Chorus]
D A
Many is the night I've stayed awake and cried
D A E
Now you'll never know how much you've hurt my foolish pride
[Verse 3]
A E
I recall your kisses, the times I held you tight
Now when I come to see you, you're sitting in the light
D A
Missing all the things that we dreamed of
You've got the ways of a woman in love
[Piano Solo]
D A
[Chorus]

Many is the night I've stayed awake and cried

I recall your kisses, the times I held you tight

18.) "You're The Nearest Thing To Heaven"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
[Intro]
A7 D
[Verse 1]
I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue
I held my breath and watched the western sunsets golden hue
I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green
But you're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen
[Chorus]
You're the nearest thing to heaven, yes you are
I have searched for happiness so long and far
But my search for love was through the day that I found you
'cause you're the nearest thing to heaven, yes you are
[Verse 2]
I confess that I've been tempted by alluring magic charms
When a smile was flashed my way and stood before two open arms
But I turn and walk away because I love you like I do
You're the nearest thing to heaven, darling you
[Chorus]
You're the nearest thing to heaven, yes you are
I have searched for happiness so long and far
But my search for love was through the day that I found you
'cause you're the nearest thing to heaven, yes you are
[Bridge]
A7 D
[Verse 3]
I have watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day
Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away
I love the pretty flowers but he cannot buy their worth
But you're the nearest thing to heaven on this earth
[Chorus]
You're the nearest thing to heaven, yes you are
I have searched for happiness so long and far
But my search for love was through the day that I found you
'cause you're the nearest thing to heaven, yes you are

We were just a plain ol' hillbilly band with a plain ol' country style

When Luther played the boogie-woogie, Luther played the boogie-woogie

We played sad songs real slow and smooth
But the only thing that would make 'em move was... hoo-wee

When Luther played the boogie-woogie, Luther played the boogie-woogie

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Well, the reading and the writing and arithmetic
Never did get through to me
E
'cause I learned my A-B-C's
But when I graduated from the grammar school
And I moved one grade above
A
I began to be a snook at books
But I made straight A's in love
[Chorus]
Now, the teacher would say to learn your algebray
But I'd bring home C's and D's
How could I make an A when there's a swinging maid
On the left and on the right and in the back and the front of me?
Oh, my grades are low on my card, I know
But they ought to give me one above
If they'd give me a mark for learning in the dark
I'd have straight A's in love
[Interlude]
E
A

[Verse 2]
Now, in my senior year, with graduation near
I did my homework every night
And when my mama said I oughta go to bed

But my sweetie pie was waiting right outside
She'd be a-cooing like a dove
Though I did my best, I failed semester test
But I made straight A's in love
[Chorus]
Now, the teacher would say to learn your algebray
But I'd bring home C's and D's
How could I make an A when there's a swinging maid
On the left and on the right and in the back and the front of me?

But they ought to give me one above
If they'd give me a mark for learning in the dark
I'd have straight A's in love

I gave my woman half my money at the general store
I said, "Now, buy a little groceries and don't spend no more"
Then, she paid ten dollars for a ten cent hat
And got some store-bought cat food for our mean-eyed cat
When I give her ten more dollars for a one-way ticket
She was mad as she could be
Then I bet ten more that if she ever left
She'd come a-crawling back to me

When I woke up this morning and I turned my head
There wasn't a cotton-picking thing on her side of the bed
I found a little old note where her head belonged

When I heard a whistle blowing and the big wheels a-turning
I was scared as I could be
I put on my overalls and I headed for town
I'm gonna bring her back with me

I asked the man down at the station if he had seen her there
I told him all about her pretty eyes and long blonde hair
He spit his tobacco, said, "I'll be dad-blamed
I believe I did see her leaving on a eastbound train"
I bought a round trip ticket on the eastbound train
I was broke as I could be
But when I come back, I gotta buy another ticket
Gonna bring her back with me
