(ver. 1)
John Hartford
In Plain View of The Town
Heading Down To Mystery Below
John Hartford
Banjo tuned Eb, Capo 4, Key of: D

Fog horn and whistle till :34 and to 1:00, music begins at 1:15

Chorus:
    D                 G            D
Looks like no matter, how hard they push,
                              A
These barges are still on the ground
               D           G        D
Must have been embarrasing for the pilot
                   G                D
Here in plain view of the town

       G              D              G
And even though they pushed them over toward shore
                           D
They still ain't going nowhere
                G           D
Along the river while people fish
                            A
And some just sit and stare

Instrumental:
     D              G              D
The sun's going down, it's almost supper,
                        A   
I been a working since early day
         D              G         D
But unless the Ohio comes up a little,
                    A        D
I guess that's where they'll stay

Instrumental:

  G                   D          D
Listen to the now I really hit her a lick
                G        D
He's really mad at it now
                G          D
They had to face up to the other end
              A    D
To get it off the ground

Chorus again:
