Leadbelly, JOHN HENRY
Leadbelly's intoduction from 'Leadbelly Sings For Children' (recorded circa. 1941):
"John Henry was a steel driving man. Well that's mighty fine. He was a double jointed
I don't guess you knew that.
That's what made him drive so much steel."
D (D5, D6, Dmaj7)
John Henry WAS A newborn baby
A (A5, A6, Amaj7) E
E6, Emaj7)
Sitting down on his mamma's knee
G
Said that big man turned down that sad old road
(minor-flourishes)
D A D A
It's gonna be the death of me, Lord, Lord
D A D
It's gonna be the death of me,
It's gonna be the death of me, Lord, Lord
It's gonna be the death of me,
