Key:
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 A F#m7 Bm7 Well I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 Bm7 Bm7/E A9 And I'm bound for Louisiana, my own true love for to see
Amaj7 Bm7 Cmaj7 F#m7 It did rain all night the day I left
A F#m7 Bm7 The weather was bone dry
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 The sun was so hot I froze myself
Bm7 Bm7/E A9 Suzanne don't you break down and cry [Chorus]
Dmaj7 Bm7 Bm7/E I said Oh Suzanna ------

A F#m7 Bm7 Now don't you cry for me
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 Bm7 Bm7/E A9 As I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee [Verse 2]
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 Well I had myself a dream the other night
A F#m7 Bm7 When everything was still
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 I dreamed that I saw my girl Suzanne
Bm7 Bm7/E A9 She was coming around the hill
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 The buckwheat cake was in her mouth
A F#m7 Bm7 A tear was in her eye
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F#m7 I said that I come from Dixie land
Bm7 Bm7/E A9 Suzanne don't you break down and cry [Chorus]
Dmaj7 Bm7 Bm7/E I said Oh Suzanna ------
A F#m7 Bm7 Now don't you cry for me
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 Bm7 Bm7/E A9 As I come from Alabama with a bajo on my knee
