The Erie Canal Chords

(ver. 1)
Pete Seeger
[Verse 1]
Am         C            Dm      E7
I've got a mule and her name is Sal
Am                   E7   Am
Fifteen miles on the Erie Can*l
Am      C                     Dm       E7
She's a good old worker and a good old pal
Am                   E7   Am
Sixteen miles on the Erie Can*l
 
[Pre-Chorus]
   C                         G
We haul'd some barges in our day
Am                            E7
Filled with lumber, coal, and hay
Am      C     Dm          E7
We know every inch of the way
     Am        G7
From Albany to Buffalo - o
 
[Chorus]
C                     G
Low bridge, everybody down
C                            G    C
Low bridge, for we're coming to a town
           C                G7
And you'll always know your neighbor
           C                G7
And you'll always know your pal
       C        F            G7   C
If you ever navigated on the Erie Can*l
 
[Verse 2]
         Am       C              Dm        E7
Well you bet your life I'd never part with Sal,
Am                   E7   Am
Fifteen miles on the Erie Can*l
    Am          C            Dm  E7
She knows every inch of this old can*l,
Am                   E7   Am
Fifteen miles on the Erie Can*l
 
[Pre-Chorus]
   C                         G
We haul'd some barges in our day
Am                            E7
Filled with lumber, coal, and hay
Am      C     Dm          E7
We know every inch of the way
     Am        G7
From Albany to Buffalo - o
 
[Chorus]
C                     G
Low bridge, everybody down
C                            G    C
Low bridge, for we're coming to a town
           C                G7
And you'll always know your neighbor
           C                G7
And you'll always know your pal
       C        F            G7   C
If you ever navigated on the Erie Can*l
