G . C /b D . . /f#G ./e/d G Wintertime in New York town The wind blowing snow around Walk around with nowhere to go Somebody could freeze right to the bone I froze right to the bone New York Times said it was the coldest winter in seventeen years I didn't feel so cold then. I swung on to my old guitar Grabbed hold of a subway car And after a rocking, reeling, rolling ride I landed up on the downtown side: Greenwich Village. I walked down there and ended up In one of them coffee-houses on the block Got on the stage to sing and play Man there said: "Come back some other day You sound like a hillbilly We want folksingers here. Well, I got a harmonica job begun to play Blowing my lungs out for a dollar a day I blowed inside out and upside down The man there said he loved my sound He was raving about he loved my sound Dollar a day's worth. After weeks and weeks of hanging around I finally got a job in New York town In a bigger place, bigger money too Even joined the Union and paid my dues. Now, a very great man once said That some people rob you with a fountain pen It don't take too long to find out Just what he was talking about A lot of people don't have much food on their table But they got a lot of forks and knives And they gotta cut something. So one morning when the sun was warm I rambled out of New York town Pulled my cap down over my eyes And heated out for the western skies So long New York Howdy, East Orange. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.In My Time of Dyin' The song is basically just a finger-picking/bottleneck exercise over a sustained chord Open D/E tuning. It's all in the singing... :-) Open D tuning (D-A-d-f#-a-d')/Capo 4th fret or (preferably, since the 12-|th fret is to hit then) Open E tuning (E-B-e-g--------------------------------------|b-e')/capo 2nd fret. Below is the intro and the first verse tabbed the way it is played. All the slide are played with the bottleneck, but if you haven't emptied your bottle yet, the fingers will to do. The lick that is played here and there in the intro and between lines eventually settles a more fixed form: : . . . : . . |-----------------0-------|-------------------| |-----------------0-------|-------------------| |-----------2/3-----1-----|-------------------| |-------------------------|-3---0-------------| |-------------------------|-----------0-----3-| |-0-----0-----0---------0-|-------0-----0-----| [Intro] . . : . . . : . . . : . . . -------------|-----0-----------0-------|-------------------------|-----0-------------0-----| -------------|-----0-----------0-------|-------------------------|-----0-----------0-0-----| -------------|-----------2/3-----2\1---|-------------------------|-----------2/3---3-----1-| -----------0-|-----------------------3-|-3---0-----------------0-|-------------------------| -----3-------|-------------------------|-0---------0-----3-------|-------------------------| -0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0-----------|-------0-----0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0-----0-----| : . . . : . . . : . . . |-------------------------|-----0-----------0-------|-----------0----/7-------| |-------------------------|-----0-----------0-------|-----------0-----0-------| |-------------------------|-----------2-----3-1-----|-------------------------| |-3---0-----0-----------0-|-------------------------|-3-----------------------| |-3p0-------------3-------|-------------------------|-0---0-------------------| |-------0-----0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0---------0-|-------0-----0-----0---0-| : . . . : . . . : . . . |-5-----3---0-----------3-|----p0----/12----12------|-----12------------------| |-0---------------0-----3-|----p0----/12------------|-------------------------| |-------------------------|-------------------------|-----------0-------------| |-------------------------|-----0-------------------|-------------0---------0-| |-------------------------|-------------------------|-----------------3-------| |-0---0-0---0-0-----0-----|-0-----0---0-0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0-----0-----| : . . . . : . . . |-----0-------------------------|-------------------------| |-----0-------------------------|-------------------------| |-----0-------------------------|-------------------------| |-------------------------------|-------------------------| |-------------------------------|-------------------------| |-0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0-----0-----| Well, In my time of dyin : . . . : . . . : . . . |-----------------0-------|-------------------------|-----------------------0-| |-------------------------|-------------------------|-----------0-----------0-| |-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------| |-----0-----3-------------|-------------------------|-----3-----------0-------| |-----------------------0-|-----3-----0-----3-----0-|-------------------------| |-0-----0-----0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0-----0-----|-0-----0-----0-----0-----| don't want no -

The song is played in E, so either tune in open E or in open D with a capo on the 2nd fret. The basic chords are: E 000000 A 020120 B x02100 The most dominant riff that goes through the whole song, or rather: wherever there is an chord, is (it is mainly played on the bass strings, but of course it doesn't matter if strings are sounding): : . . . : . . . |-0---------------|-------------------| |-0---------------|-------------------| |-0---------------|-------------------| |-0---------------|-3---0-5---0-3-----| |-0---------------|-3---0-5---0-3-----| |-0---------------|-3---0-5---0-3-----| The verses end with a different lick: : . . . : |-----------------|--------| |-----------------|--------| |-----------------|--------| |-3---0-----------|--------| |---------3p0-----|--------| |-------------3---|-0------| There are other riffs, but they are all mainly variations on the same theme: open and strings stopped on the 3rd fret. One might even use one's own imagination... E Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door A E Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door B If I don't get the girl I'm loving E Won't go down to Highway 51 no more. Well, I know that highway like I know my hand Yes, I know that highway like I know the back of my hand Running from up Wisconsin way down to no man's land. Well, if I should die before my time should come And if I should die before my time should come Won't you bury my body out on the Highway 51. Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door I said, Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door If I don't get the girl I'm loving Won't go down to Highway 51 no more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8.Gospel Plow Dropped D tuning (D-A-d-g-b-e') Chords: D 000232 A x02220 or 202220 G 020033 fill: : . . . : ---2-----------|---| ---3-----------|---| ---2-----------|---| ---0-----------|-0-| ---------0--3--|---| ---------------|---| D Mary wore three links of chain, A D Ev'ry link was Jesus name, G A D [fill] Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on, A D [fill] Oh, Lord, Oh, Lord, G A D [fill] Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on. Mary, Mark and Luke and John, All these prophets so good and gone, Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on, Oh, Lord, Oh, Lord, Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on. I never been to heaven, but I've been told, Streets up there are line with gold, Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on, Oh, Lord, Oh, Lord, Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on.

When I get to the glory land, Gonna play in the glory land, Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on, Oh, Lord, Oh, Lord, Keep-a your hand on that plow, hold on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9.Baby, Let Me Follow You Down Capo 2nd fret (sounding key A major) Chords (The F is played with a hammer-on from the open 6th string): Eb/g 3xx343 G/b 7xx787 D/a 5xx775 or x0x775 C/e 000553 D/f# 200232 C/g 332010 He doesn't always get the descent (“I'll do anything...”) right -- sometimes it seems he sends the thumb away to some bass string (sometimes both the E and the A). Especially G/b – it is generally so blurred that it's apparent that he's fingering something – most the 7th fret with the thumb – but the b rarely sounds, and at times he just an E on the open 6th string. The tab of the intro below is fairly accurate, which does not mean that it should be copied; the basic features are the steady thumb and the triple feel of the treble strings, some variation or another. Between the chords in the descent (mm. 3-5), the last upbeat each chord is struck while in transition from one chord to the next, hence they are muted (indicated with “x”) or open strings.

Interlude between verses something of the as the intro. Am . C/g . |D/f# . F . |Am . E . *|Am . . . Am C/g D/f# F There is a house down in New Orleans Am C/g E they call the rising sun Am C/g D/f# F And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl Am E Am and me, oh God, I'm one. My mother was a tailor, she sowed these new blue jeans My sweetheart was a gambler, Lord, down in New Orleans. Now the only thing a gambler needs is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time when he's satisfied is when he's on a drunk. He fills his glasses up to the brim and he'll pass the cards around And the only pleasure he gets out of life is rambling from town to town. Oh tell my baby sister not to do what I have done But shun that house in New Orleans they call the rising sun. Well with one foot on the platform and the other foot on the train I'm going back to New Orleans to wear that ball and chain. I'm going back to New Orleans, my race is almost run I'm going back to end my life down in the rising sun. There is a house in New Orleans they call the rising sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl and me, oh God, I'm one. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11.Freight Train Blues Intro: |:C . . . |. .

Well, the crowd, they gathered one fine morn, At the man whose clothes 'n' shoes were torn. There on the sidewalk he did lay, They stopped 'n' stared and they went their way. Well, the p'liceman come and he looked around, "Get up, old man, or I'm a-takin' you down." He jabbed him once with his bully club, the old man then rolled off the curb. Well, he jabbed him again and loudly said: "Call the wagon; this man is dead." The wagon come, they loaded him in, I never saw the man again. I've sung you my song, it ain't very long, 'Bout an old man who never done wrong. How he died no body could say, They found him dead in the street one day. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
