Oh, Susanna
S. Foster
arrangement by Pete Seeger


INTRO: D  A  D  G-D-A  D  A  D  A  D

D                                       A
I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
                                           D
I'm goin' to Lousiana, my true love for to see
                                                       A
It rained all night the day I left, the weather it was dry
                                                   D
The sun so hot I froze to death, Susanna don't you cry


CHORUS:
G    D  A    D                 A
Oh, Susanna, don't you cry for me
     D                         A           D
I've come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee


(CHORUS CHORDS)


I had a dream the other night when everything was still
I thought I saw Susanna dear a-comin' down the hill
Sweetness on her rosy lips, a tear was in her eye
I said to her Susana dear, Susana don't you cry


CHORUS (2x)
