Written by Robert Lee Castleman & Stephen Foster
Recorded by Alan Jackson
(Capo on 1)
Well, I (G)came from (Gmaj7)Ala-(G7)bama (C) with a (G)banjo on my (D)knee
I'm (G)goin' to (Gmaj7)Louisi-(G7)ana, (C) my (G)true love (D)for to (G)see
It had (G)rained all (Gmaj7)night the (G7)day I (C)left, the (G)weather it was (D)dry
The (G)sun so (Gmaj7)hot I (G7)froze to (C)death, Su-(G)sanna (D)don't you (G) cry
I got a (D)long way to go (G)
(C) I sure feel it now (G)deep down in these dusty clothes
(C) Through another town (G)backed up with capricious souls
(D) I got a long way to go (G)
I got a (D)lot left to say (G)
(C) To the empty seat that (G)stood beside me through the fray
(C) To the midnight moon who (G)saw it fit to light my way
(D) I got a lot left to say (G)
(Chorus)
But where do I got from (Em)here when I'm (D)lost out on the road
And the (D#dim)way's not (Em) clear to (D)find my way back home
I need to (C)hear the only (G/B)voice that leads me on
(Bb) So I can find my way back to (D)you (D+) ---
I (G)had a (Gmaj7)dream the (G7)other (C)night when (G)everything was (D)still
I (G)thought I (Gmaj7)saw Su-(G7)sanna (C) (G)comin' (D)down the (G)hill
A (G)buckwheat (Gmaj7)cake was (G7)in her (C)mouth, a (G)tear was in her (D)eye
Says (G)I'm (Gmaj7)comin' (G7)from the (C)south, (G)Susanna (D)don't you (G)cry
(Chorus)
But where do I got from (Em)here when I'm (D)lost out on the road
And the (D#dim)way's not (Em) clear to (D)find my way back home
I need to (C)hear the only (G/B)voice that leads me on
(Bb) So I can find my way back to (D)you (D+) ---
(G)Soon we'll (Gmaj7)be in (G7)New (C)Orleans, (G)then I'll look (D) around
And (G)when I (Gmaj7)find Su-(G7)sanna, (C) I'll (G)fall down (D)on the (G)ground
And (G)if I (Gmaj7)do not (G7)find (C)her, then (G)I shall surely (D)die
And (G)when I'm (Gmaj7)dead and (G7)buried, (C) Su-(G)sanna (D)don't you (G)cry -----
