Love In Vain Chords

(ver. 1)
Robert Johnson
(you'll need the tab or a good ear to get the finger picking for this song.  This is a 
just a cheat sheet for when you know the changes...)

Intro: G-Gb-A  G-D7

       G                    G7   G7                           G7
And I followed her to the station, with a suitcase in my hand
       C                         C                            G7-D7
And I followed-her-to-the-station, with a suitcase in my hand
G            A7                            D7                         G
  Well it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell, when all your love's in vain
                      -D7
All my love's in vain

           G                     G7    G7                       G7
When the train rolled up to the station, I looked her in the eye
           C                           C                        G7-D7
When the train-rolled-up-to-the-station, I looked her in the eye
G              A7                         D7                           G
  Well, I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome, and I could not help but cry
                      -D7
All my love's in vain

           G                 G7   G7                         G7
When the train it left the station, with two lights on behind
           C                      C                           G7-D7
When the train-it-left-the-station, with two lights on behind
G           A7                    D7                           G
  Well the blue light was my blues, and the red light was my mind
                      -D7
All my love's in vain

        G      G7         G7    G7
Ohh ho oh oh oh,  Willie Mae
       C             C              G7-D7
Ohh oh oh oh oh,  hey,  ho, Willie Mae
G       A7           D7              G
  Ohh oh, oh oh oh oh, hee vee oh woe
                      -D7
All my love's in vain
