Little Cory by Jean Ritchie - Guitar Chords

Version 1

            [Intro]
A

[Verse 1]
     A
Wake up, wake up little Cory
     A         E        A
What makes you sleep so sound?
         D               A
When the marshals are a 'comin
       A        E           A
Gonna tear your still house down

[Verse 2]
    A
Go 'way, go 'way little Cory
          A         E        A
Quit your hangin' a-round my bed
    D                    A
Bad liquor has ruined my body
       A         E          A
Pretty women has gone to my head

[Verse 3]
    A
The last time I seen little Cory
         A              E             A
She was standing with a bottle in her hand
   D                A
A'drinkin' down her sorrow
           A      E       A
Cause they took a-way her man

[Verse 4]
          A
Don't you hear them bluebirds a'singin'
          A         E        A
Don't you hear that mournful sound
          D                     A
Don't you hear them bluebirds a'singin'
        A             E         A
My true love she lies under the ground

[Verse 5]
   A
I ain't gonna work tommorow
   A          E         A
I ain't gonna work next day
      D              A
I'll stay at home in sorrow
A        E         A
If it is Christmas day

[Verse 6]
     A
Wake up, wake up little Cory
     A          E       A
What makes you sleep so sound?
         D               A
When the marshals are a 'comin
       A        E           A
Gonna tear your still house down
