Biografia:
Abner Wingate Jay (July 15, 1921 – November 4, 1993) was an American multi-instrumentalist from Georgia, best known for performing eccentric, blues infused folk music as a one man band. Common instruments on Jay's recordings include harmonica, drum kit, a six-string banjo (that Jay claimed was made in 1748), and the “bones”, which were chicken and cow bones that had been bleached in the sun and used to create percussion.
Jay was born in Fitzgerald, Georgia.

This version is Abner's one-man-band version, found on countless modern
repackagings of his work. It's not the full band version the circulates as "Depression."
Note that throughout the entire song, Abner used arpeggiated chords. I'll leave it
up to you whether you want to play it that way or otherwise.
Opening:
G D G Em
Verse 1:
G Em
I was born during the hard depression
G Em
day, oh my Lord
G Em
In July, in South Georgia
G Em
where the sun was hot as a blaze
G Em
My folk was sharecroppers,
G Em
At the end of the year
G Em
We had nothing, we had nothing
G Em
we had nothing, but grasshoppers
Chorus:
D C
Looking back, over my life
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
G Em
Help me somebody, I need some rest
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
Verse-Chorus Mix:
G Em
Every boy needs a girl
G Em
every girl needs a boy
D C
I'm a boy so full of love
G Em
I have no one to hold my hand
G Em
Tell me how long must I wander
G Em
Tell me how long must I cry
Verse 2:
Will there be someone, someone to wipe,
Dry the tear from my eye, come on baby, rub my head,
Rub my head while I lay down in my bed,
Kiss me, kiss me baby,
'Til I feel alright, 'til I feel alright
Chorus:
Oh, looking back over my life,
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed,
Help me somebody, I need some rest
[Slower, with tremolo effect rising]
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed...
