F#
I am a roving gambler I gambled all around
Whenever I meet with a deck of cards
B F#
I lay my money down
B
Lay my money down, lay my money down
F#
I had not been in Washington many more weeks than three
I met up with a pretty little girl
B F#
She fell in love with me
B
Fell in love with me, fell in love with me
F#
She took me in her parlour, she cooled me with her fan
She whispered low in her mother's ear
B F#
I love that gambling man
B
Love that gambling man, love that gambling man
F#
Oh daughter oh dear daughter how can you treat me so?
Leave your dear old mother
B F#
And with a gambler go
B
With a gambler go, with a gambler go
F#
My mother oh dear mother you can not understand
If you ever see me a coming back
B F#
I'll be with a gambling man
B
With a gambling man, with a gambling man
F#
I left her here in El Paso and I wound up in Maine
I met up with a gambling man
B F#
Got in a poker game
B
Got in a poker game, got in a poker game
F#
We put our money in the pot and dealt the cards around
I saw him deal from the bottom of the deck
B F#
And I shot that gambler down
B
Shot the gambler down, shot the gambler down
F#
Well, now I'm in the jailhouse got a number for my name
The Warden said as he locked the door
B F#
You've gambled your last game
B
Gambled your last game, gambled your last game
F#
I am a roving gambler I gambled all around
Whenever I meet with a deck of cards
B F#
I lay my money down
B
Lay my money down, lay my money down

"Lightning Express"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro: C G A D7 G D7
G
The lightning express from the depot so grand
C G
Had started out on its way
All of the passengers that were on board
A D7
Seemed to be happy and gay
G
But one little boy who sat by himself
C G
Was reading a letter he had
C G
You could plainly tell by the look on his face
A D7 G
That the contents of it made him sad
G
The stern old conductor then started his round
C G
Taking tickets from everyone there
And finally reaching the side of the boy
A D7
He gruffly demanded his fare
G
"I have no ticket" the boy then replied
C G
"But I'll pay you back someday"
C G
"Then I'll put you off at the next stop we make"
A D7 G
But he stopped when he heard the boy say
G
"Please Mr. Conductor
C G
Don't put me off of this train
The best friend I have in this world sir
A D7
Is waiting for me in pain
G
Expecting to die any moment sir
C G
And may not live through the day
C G
I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye
A D7 G
Before God takes her away."
C G A D7 G D7
G
A girl sitting near was heard to exclaim
C G
"If you put him off, it's a shame."
Taking his hand, a collection she made
A D7
The boy's way was paid on the train
G
"I'm obliged to you miss for your kindness to me."
C G
"You're welcome," she said, "never fear."
C G
Each time the conductor would pass through the car
A D7 G
The boy's words would ring in his ear
G
"Please Mr. Conductor
C G
Don't put me off of this train
The best friend I have in this world sir
A D7
Is waiting for me in pain
G
Expecting to die any moment sir
C G
And may not live through the day
C G
I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye
A D7 G
Before God takes her away."
Outro:
C G
"I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye
A D7 G
Before God takes her away."

"Barbara Allen"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro: Bb F C F
F
T'was in the merry month of May
Bb F
When flowers were a-bloomin'
Bb F
Sweet Willie on his deathbed lay
C F
For the love of Barbara Allen
F
He sent his servant to the town
Bb F
The town where she did dwell in
Bb F
Saying "Master dear has sent me here
C F
If your name is Barbara Allen"
F
Then slowly, slowly she got up
Bb F
And slowly she went to him
Bb F
And all she said when she got there
C F
"Young man, I think you're dying"
F
"Oh don't you remember the other day
Bb F
When we were in the tavern?
Bb F
You drank your health to the ladies there
C F
And you slighted Barbara Allen"
Bb F C F
F
He turned his face unto the wall
Bb F
He turned his back upon her
Bb F
"So long farewell to all my friends
C F
Be kind to Barbara Allen"
F
She looked to the east, she looked to the west
Bb F
She saw his corpse a-comin'
Bb F
"Oh sit him down for me" she cried
C F
"That I may gaze upon him"
F
The more she looked the more she grieved
Bb F
She bursted out to cryin'
Bb F
Sayin' "Pick me up and carry me home
C F
For I feel like I am dyin'"
Bb F C F
F
They buried Willie in the old churchyard
Bb F
And Barbara in the new one
Bb F
From Willie's grave there grew a rose
C F
From Barbara's a green briar
F
They grew and grew to the old church wall
Bb F
And could not grow no higher
Bb F
And there they died in a true love-knot
C F
The rosebush and the briar

"Rockin' Alone (In an Old Rockin' Chair)"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro: E
E B
Sitting alone in an old rocking chair
B7 E
I saw an old mother with silvery hair
A
She seemed so neglected by those who should care
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
Her hands were all callused and wrinkled and old
B7 E
A life of hard work was the story they told
A
And I thought of angels as I saw her there
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
Bless her old heart, do you think she'd complain
B7 E
Though life has been bitter she'd live it again
A
And carry that cross that is more than her share
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
It wouldn't take much just to gladden her heart
B7 E
Just some small remembrance on somebody's part
A
A letter would brighten her empty life there
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
I look at her and I think "What a shame"
B7 E
The ones who forgot her she loves just the same
A
And I think of angels as I see her there
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair

"I'm not in your town to stay,"

said a lady old and gray

to the warden of the penitentiary
A
"I'm not in your town to stay
A
And I'll soon be on my way
E A
I'm just here to get my baby out of jail
D E A
Oh warden, I'm just here to get my baby out of jail"

"I tried to raise my baby right
A
I have prayed both day and night

That he wouldn't follow footsteps of his dad
A
I have searched both far and wide
A
And I feared that he had died
E A
But at last I've found my baby here in jail
D E A
Oh warden, at last I've found my baby here in jail"
A
A
"It was just five years today
A
When his daddy passed away
E A
He was found beneath the snow so cold and white
A
T’was then I bowed to take his ring
A
And his gold watch and his chain
E A
Then the county laid his daddy in the grave
D E A
Yes warden, the county laid his daddy in the grave"
A
"I will pawn you his watch
A
I will pawn you his chain
E A
I will pawn you my diamond wedding ring
A
I will wash all your clothes
A
I will scrub all your floors
E A
If that will get my baby out of jail
D E A
Yes warden, if that will get my baby out of jail"
A
Then I heard the warden say
A
to the lady old and gray:
E A
"I'll go bring your darling baby to your side"
A
Two iron gates swung wide apart
A
She held her darling to her heart
E A
She kissed her baby boy and then she died
D E A
But smiling, she kissed her baby boy and then she died
A E A
A E A
D E A
A
"I'm not in your town to stay,"
A
said a lady old and gray
E A
"I'm just here to get my baby out of jail
