Oh Susanna Chords

    A                                 
Oh I come from Alabama with a banjo on 
  E
my knee,
   A                                E  
I'm going to Louisiana, my true love for
   A
to see
  A                                    
It rained all night the day I left, the 
              E
weather it was dry
   A                            
The sun so hot I froze to death; 
        E         A
Susanna, don't you cry.

D            A                 E
Oh, Susanna, don't you cry for me
      A
For I come from Alabama,
              E     A
with my banjo on my knee.

 A                                
I had a dream the other night when 
              E
everything was still,
 A                            E      
I thought I saw Susanna coming up the 
A
hill,
   A                                   
The buckwheat cake was in her mouth, the
                E
tear was in her eye,
 A                               
I said I'm coming from Dixieland, 
       E         A
Susanna don't you cry.

D            A                 E
Oh, Susanna, don't you cry for me
      A
For I come from Alabama,
              E     A
with my banjo on my knee.

 A                                     
I soon will be in New Orleans, and then 
          E
I'll look around
   A                                
And when I find my gal Susanne, I'll 
     E       A
fall upon the ground.
   A                                   
But if I do not find her, this darkey'll
       E
surely die,
   A                                 
and when I'm dead and buried, Susanna 
E         A
don't you cry.

D            A                 E
Oh, Susanna, don't you cry for me
      A
For I come from Alabama,
              E     A
with my banjo on my knee.
