Misc Traditional — Dreary Black Hills

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

Like most American folk songs, "Dreary Black Hills" has a multitude of variations to the verse and the chorus.
This tab contains three sample verses and variations of the chorus that I have collected, as well as chords
based on how I play it on banjo. Enjoy!


[Verse 1]
G
Kind friends, listen here to my pitiful tale
                        D7
An object of pity, I’m looking quite stale,
C            G             D7              G
I gave up my trade selling Wright’s Patent Pills
   C          G           D7           G
To go hunting gold in the dreary Black Hills


[Chorus 1]
G
Don’t go away, stay at home if you can,
                               D7
Stay away from that city, they call it Cheyenne
    C        G     D7       G
For big Wallipe or Comanche Bill
        C            G           D7           G
They'll lift up your hair at the dreary Black Hill


[Verse 2]
G
I got to Cheyenne, no gold could I find,
                                 D7
I thought of the lunch route I'd left far behind;
        C               G            D7           G
Through rain, hail, and snow, frozen plumb to the gills -
     C           G             D7           G
They call me the orphan of the dreary Black Hills.


[Chorus 2]
G
So don’t go away, stay at home if you can,
                               D7
Stay away from that city, they call it Cheyenne
    C           G        D7             G
For old Sitting Bull and Chief Comanche Dan
        C            G              D7           G
They're raising pure hell round the town of Cheyenne


[Verse 3]
      G
Oh, I wish that the man who had started this cell
                              D7
Was a captive and Crazy Horse had him in Hell
        C         G             D7              G
There's no use in groaning or swearing like pitch
      C             G             D7       G
But a man who would stay here's a son of a bitch


[Chorus 3]
G
Don’t go away, stay at home if you can,
                               D7
Stay away from that city, they call it Cheyenne
    C           G        D7             G
For old Sitting Bull and Chief Wallipe Bill
        C            G              D7           G
They'll lift up your scalp in the dreary Black Hills
