Intro
C
My sweetheart has gone and left me
F C
And my little sisters, too
F C
And I'm left alone in sadness
G C
Lord, I don't know what to do
C
All this world has turned against me
F C
Nothing but trouble do I see
F C
There will be no more pleasure
G C
In this whole wide world for me
Instrumental break
Oh, I am just from East Virginia
With a heart so brave and true
And I learned to love a maiden
With eyes of heavenly blue
That same day I packed my suitcase
And I started to go away
But she met me at the station
Saying, darling, won't you stay
Instrumental break
Oh, I am dying, Captain, dying
Won't you take these words for me
Take them over to the jailhouse
Let this whole wide world go free
