Biografía:
Jimmie Rodgers (8 de septiembre de 1897 – 26 de mayo de 1933) fue un cantautor estadounidense de música country. Fue el primer músico en convertirse en una estrella del country. Su influencia en la música de raíces estadounidenses es incalculable, ya que ha influido a prácticamente todos los músicos que han desarrollado el country en el siglo XX, entre los que cabe destacar al también influyente Hank Williams.

NOBODY KNOWS BUT ME
JIMMIE RODGERS
VERSE 1:
C A7
Nobody knows 'bout the jailhouse blues,
D7 G7 C
Till you get within four walls,
C A7
And the old jailer man turns that big black key,
D7 G7
That's when your spirit falls.
C C7
Then you drag yourself up to the bars
F G7 C
and while you gaze out at the stars
G7 D7 G
this is what you say...
CHORUS:
C A7
Why did I stray from the righteous path,
D7 G7 C
Nobody knows but me,
C A7
There on the outside you all can laugh,
D7 G7
I don't need your sympathy.
C C7
For after I've paid for the liquor I sold,
F G7 C
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold.
A7 D7
So why did I stray from the righteous path,
G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
C G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
VERSE 2:
C A7
When you realize that you're all alone,
D7 G7 C
Sitting in a two by four
C A7
that little cell is just a taste of hell,
D7 G7
If you ain't been there before.
C C7
You are locked up tight, but they treat you fair.
F G7 C
You get ev'rything that you need in there
G7 D7 G
that's just why you say...
CHORUS:
C A7
Why did I stray from the righteous path,
D7 G7 C
Nobody knows but me,
C A7
There on the outside you all can laugh,
D7 G7
I don't need your sympathy.
C C7
For after I've paid for the liquor I sold,
F G7 C
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold.
A7 D7
So why did I stray from the righteous path,
G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
C G7 C
Nobody knows but me.
