"John Henry, Where'd You Go?"
By Don Chaffer from the album 'What You Don't Know'
**The F# and G is only the root note, there isn't a chord played necessarily.
Have a listen to the song for an idea.
[Intro/Verse]
F# Bm
John Henry, where'd you go?
G D
I wonder every time it snows
F# Bm
See the hammer and the body in the evening light
G D
Skin of brown
G D
Under a bed of white
F# Bm
The cracked mountains of those cold cruel mines
G D
An elegy under the steam drill's whine
F# Bm
If you listen right at suppertime
G D
At sunset
G D
You can hear it chime
[Chorus]
D C# Bm
That ringing sound like silver
F# A
That ringing sound like gold
G D G D
That ringing sound like angel choirs
Em F# G A
That never grow old
[Verse]
F# Bm
His mother hardly speaks
G D
Her rocking chair just creaks
F# Bm G D
I will sit here in the darkness when the sun falls down
G D
Eat supper cold
G D
Listen for that sound
F# Bm
That was one hell of a year
G D
So I'll make my prayer clear
F# Bm
Let the hammer crack the suffering tree
G D
And crack the sky
G D
So everyone can see
[Chorus II & III]
D C# Bm
John Henry shines like silver
F# A
John Henry shines like gold
G D G D
John Henry's like the angel choirs
Em F# G A
That never grow old
D C# Bm
His mother sings like silver
F# A
His mother shines like gold
G D G D
His mother sings like angel choirs
Em F# G A
That never grow old
[Outro]
F# Bm
