                       G                                                 D
Studying about that good old way
            
And who shall wear the starry crown

Good Lord  show me the way
 
A7                     G                     D
O sisters let's go down

Lets go down  come on down
A7                                     G                  D
Come on sisters lets go down
                              A7                   D
Down in the river to pray

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord show me the way
 
O brothers lets go down
Let's go down come on down
Come on brothers lets go down
Down in the river to pray



As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the star and crown
Good Lord show me the way
 
O fathers lets go down
Let's go down, Come on down 
Come on fathers lets go down
Down in the river to pray
 
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord show me the way
 
O mothers lets go down
Come on down don't you wanna go down
Come on Mothers lets go down
Down in the river to pray
 
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the star and crown
Good Lord show me the way
 
O sinners lets go down
Lets go down, come on down
Come on  sinners lets go down
Down in the river to pray
 
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the Robe and crown
Good Lord show me the way


This is one of my favorite songs.
If you have never hear Alison Krauss
in the movie Brother Where Art Thou?
then rent it . . . it is amazing. 

Have a blessed day,

Sugar Moon ~ A Three Chord Song

Sugar Moon 

 
D                                           E7
When it's sugarcane time along around about June
                     A7                         D
I'll be walking with sugar neath that old sugar moon
                                   E7
Gonna drop her a line to expect me soon
                    A7                        D
Oh I’m craving some sugar neath the old sugar moon

                                                
I can see her right now she’ll get the calendar down
                 E7                         A7
Scratch a circle around the day we’re altar bound
                    D                      E7
When it’s sugarcane time long around about June
                      A7                          D
Wedding bells will be chiming neath the old sugar moon

                                       E7
When the sugar moon shines along about June
                     A7                         D
I'll be walking with sugar neath that old sugar moon
                                            E7
All the kisses I missed I’ll be getting ‘em soon
                  A7                         D
Sugar kisses from sugar neath that old sugar moon

                                                 E7
I’m dreaming sweet dreams of all the loving I’ll get
                 E7                 A7
I get back to my pet lordy how I’ll fret
                    D                      E7
Till it’s sugarcane time long around about June
                     A7                         D
I’ll be walking with sugar neath that old sugar moon
 
 
 
 Have fun, and keep Strumming & Singing!
