G Gmaj7 G7 C G D Well, I came from Ala- bama with a banjo on my knee G Gmaj7 G7 C G D G I'm goin' to Louisi- ana, my true love for to see G Gmaj7 G7 C G D It had rained all night the day I left, the weather it was dry G Gmaj7 G7 C G D G The sun so hot I froze to death, Su- sanna don't you cry D G I got a long way to go C G I sure feel it now deep down in these dusty clothes C G Through another town backed up with capricious souls D G I got a long way to go D G I got a lot left to say C G To the empty seat that stood beside me through the fray C G To the midnight moon who saw it fit to light my way D G I got a lot left to sayEm D But where do I got from here when I'm lost out on the road D#dim Em D And the way's not clear to find my way back home C G/B I need to hear the only voice that leads me on Bb D So I can find my way back to you (D+) --- G Gmaj7 G7 C G D I had a dream the other night when everything was still G Gmaj7 G7 C G D G I thought I saw Su- sanna comin' down the hill G Gmaj7 G7 C G D A buckwheat cake was in her mouth, a tear was in her eye G Gmaj7 G7 C G D G Says I'm comin' from the south, Susanna don't you cryEm D But where do I got from here when I'm lost out on the road D#dim Em D And the way's not clear to find my way back home C G/B I need to hear the only voice that leads me on Bb D So I can find my way back to you (D+) --- G Gmaj7 G7 C G D Soon we'll be in New Orleans, then I'll look around G Gmaj7 G7 C G D G And when I find Su- sanna, I'll fall down on the ground G Gmaj7 G7 C G D And if I do not find her, then I shall surely die G Gmaj7 G7 C G D G And when I'm dead and buried, Su- sanna don't you cry -----
