Lead Belly (Huddie Ledbetter)

Capo I

     G               D
On a Monday, I was arrested 
                                 G
On a Tuesday, I was locked up in jail 
                               D
On a Wednesday, my trial was attested 
                                  G
On a Thursday, nobody would go my bail 

         G           D             G           D              G           D
Yes, I m all, almost done, yes I m all, almost done, yes, I m all, almost done
      D                                      G
And I ain t gonna bring them yellow women no pail 

G                                          D
Take these stripes, stripes from around my shoulder 
                                               G
Take these chains, these chains from around my legs 
                                        D
Lord, these stripes, stripes sure don't worry me 
                                              G
But these chains, these chain's gonna kill me dead 

         G           D             G           D              G           D
Yes, I m all, almost done, yes I m all, almost done, yes, I m all, almost done
      D                                      G
And I ain t  gonna bring them yellow women no pail 

G                          D
On Saturday, my baby went a-walking 
                                      G
On a Sunday, she locked me outa the door 
                                     D
On a Monday, we were sitting down a-talking 
                                   G
On a Tuesday, she pawned all of my clothes

         G           D             G           D              G           D
Yes, I m all, almost done, yes I m all, almost done, yes, I m all, almost done
      D                                      G
And I ain t gonna bring them yellow women no pail
