It [C]takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It [F]takes a worried man to sing a worried [C]song
It [C]takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried [G7]now, but I won't be worried [C]long

I [C]went across the river and I lay down to sleep
I [F]went across the river and I lay down to [C]sleep
I [C]went across the river and I lay down to sleep
When I woke [G7]up, had shackles on my [C]feet


The [C]shackles on my feet had 21 links of chain
The [F]shackles on my feet had 21 links of [C]chain
The [C]shackles on my feet had 21 links of chain
And on each [G7]link the initials of my [C]name

It [C]takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It [F]takes a worried man to sing a worried [C]song
It [C]takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried [G7]now, but I won't be worried [C]long

[C]I asked that judge "Tell me what's gonna be my fine?"
[F]I asked that judge "Tell me what's gonna be my [C]fine?"
[C]I asked that judge "Tell me what's gonna be my fine?"
"Twenty one [G7]years on the Rocky Mountain [C]line!"


The [C]train came to the station, 21 coaches long,
The [F]train came to the station, 21 coaches [C]long,
The [C]train came to the station, 21 coaches long,
The one I [G7]love is on that train and [C]gone

I [C]looked down the track, as far as I could see
I [F]looked down the track, as far as I could [C]see
I [C]looked down the track, as far as I could see
A little bitty [G7]hand was waving after [C]me


If [C]anyone should ask you, who made up this song
If [F]anyone should ask you, who made up this [C]song
If [C]anyone should ask you, who made up this song
Tell 'em 'twas [G7]I, and I sing it all day [C]long

It [C]takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried [G7]now, but I won't be worried [C]long
