I am a man of Constant Sorrow
By the Soggy Bottom Boys
For the more adventurous in tuning. The tuning is DADGAD tune the high strings down to the proper notes. If you put a capo on the third fret, it sounds good to me.
(All Chords relative to capo on third fret) not sure if these are the right chord names no book in front of me.
