- sarahct I still think it might be "come on you dogs and sing" But I see your point.

- fakebook I think you are correct. (Although the F works fine, giving it a brighter sound.) Thanks. (Can't go back and edit the post, though.)

C

                     F             C                  F           C

There was a Camptown Man, used to plow and sing

Am                       C                  F             C

And he loved that mule and the mule loved him

                 F         C             F         C
When the day got long as it does about now

Am               C                  F      C
I'd hear him singing to his mule cow

C

Calling, "Come on my sweet old girl, and I'd bet the whole damn world

C                                                                   G
That we're gonna make it yet to the end of the road"

             Am       C/B          F    C
Singing hard times ain't gonna rule my mind

Am          C/B           F    C
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, Bessie

Am            C/B           F           G    C
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind no more

Said it's a mean old world, heavy in need
That big machine is just a-picking up speed
They were supping on tears, they were supping on wine
We all get to heaven in our own sweet time

So come all you Asheville boys and turn up your old-time noise
And kick 'til the dust comes up from the cracks in the floor

Singing, hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, brother
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind no more

But the Camptown Man, he doesn't plow no more
I seen him walking down to the cigarette store
Guess he lost that knack and he forgot that song
Woke up one morning and the mule was gone

So come on, you ragtime kings, and come on, you dolls, and sing
And pick up the dusty old horn and give it a blow

Playing, hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, honey
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, sugar
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind no more

C                   Am7                D7sus2/F#

Take me and love me if you want me

F                Fm             E7

Don’t ever treat me unkind

C C7/Bb    F      Fm

‘Cause I had that trouble already

C                              G7             C

And it left me with a dark turn of mind

Now I see the bones in the river

And I feel the wind through the pine

And I hear the shadows a-calling

To a girl with a dark turn of mind

(solo over verse progression)

F                       Fm (Fm6)     Am        Am/G

But oh ain’t the nighttime so lovely to see?

F                   Fm (Fm6) Am7 C

Don’t all the nightbirds sing sweetly?

F    Fm          C

You’ll never know how happy I’ll be

D7sus2/F#                  G7

When the sun’s going down

And leave me if I’m feeling too lonely

Full as the fruit on the vine

You know some girls are bright as the morning

And some have a dark turn of mind

You know some girls are bright as the morning

And some girls are blessed with a dark turn of mind
