Ol' Man River Paul Robeson
This is the same as one of the other tabs but I've just added the intro section
[G]There's an old man called the Missi[C]ssippi
[G]That's the old man that I wants to [D7]be
[Em]What does he care if the world's got [Am]troubles
[Em]What does he care if[Am] the land[D7] ain't free[G]
[G]Ol' Man [C]River, that [G]Ol' Man [C]River,
he [G]don't say [C]nothin', but he [G]must know [C]somethin',
he [D]just keeps [D7]rollin', he [D]keeps on [D7]rollin' [G]along. [C] [G] [C]
He [G]don't plant [C]tatters, and he [G]don't plant [C]cotton,
and [G]them what [Bm]plants em, are [Em]soon for[F#7]gotten
But [D]Ol' Man [Am]River, [D]just keeps [C]rollin' [G]along. [C] [G]
[Bm]You and [Em]me, we [Bm]sweat and [Em]strain,
[Bm]body all [Em]achin' and [Bm]racked with [Em]pain.
[Bm]Tote that [F#7]barge and l[Bm]ift that b[F#7]ail,
you [Bm]get a little [F#7]drunk and you l[Bm]ands in j[Am]ail. [D]
[G]I gets [C]weary, and [G]sick of [C]trying,
I'm [G]tired of [Am]livin', but I'm [Em]scared of [A7]dyin',
but [G]Ol' Man [Em]River, he [Am]just keeps [D7]rollin' [G]along. [C] [G]
