A MAID OF CONSTANT SORROW
Traditional folk song
Judy Collins
Key: G

5 5-4 4  -4  5  -4    4   -4   6   
I am  a maid of con-stant sor-row
7      7    -6    5  5-4 4  -4
I’ve seen trials all of my days
5   -4  4   -4  5  -4  4 -4   6
I’m go-ing back to Cal-i-for-nia
7       -7 -6  6  5 4  -4   4
Place where I was part-ly raised

Your friends may say that I’m a stranger
My face they’ll never see no more
There is but one promise that’s given
I’ll sail on God’s golden shore

All through this world I’m bound to ramble
Through sun and wind and drivin’ rain
I’m bound to ride the western railway
Perhaps I’ll take the very next train

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
