Song: In The Pines Tab
Recorded by Bill Monroe
Words and music by Jimmie Davis and Clayton McMichen
CAPO: 2nd Fret/KEY: E/PLAY: D
[D] In the pines, in the [D7] pines
Where the [G] sun never [D] shines
And you shiver when the [A7] cold wind [D] blows;
[D] Whooee-whoo-[D7] hoo; [G] whoo-hoo-[D] hoo
Whoee-whoo-[A7] whoo hoo-[D] hoo!
Little girl, little girl, what have I done
That’s made you treat me so?
You caused me to weep, you caused me to moan
You caused me to leave my home.
[D] In the pines, in the [D7] pines
Where the [G] sun never [D] shines
And you shiver when the [A7] cold wind [D] blows;
[D] Whooee-whoo-[D7] hoo; [G] whoo-hoo-[D] hoo
Whoee-whoo-[A7] whoo hoo-[D] hoo!
Instrumental Break
[D] The longest [D7] train I [G] ever [D] saw
Went down that [A7] Georgia [D] line
The engine [D7] passed at [G] six o'[D] clock
And the cab went by [A7] by at [D] nine.
Refrain:
[D] In the pines, in the [D7] pines
Where the [G] sun never [D] shines
And you shiver when the [A7] cold wind [D] blows;
[D] Whooee-whoo-[D7] hoo; [G] whoo-hoo-[D] hoo
Whoee-whoo-[A7] whoo hoo-[D] hoo!
[The Carter Family also added this verse as did Leadbelly]
Little girl, little girl,don’t tell me no lies
Where did you spend last night?
I stayed in the pine where the sun never shines
and you shiver when the cold wind blows
[Unknown verse needs reference]
I asked my captain for the time of day
He said he throwed his watch away
A long steel rail and a short cross tie
I'm on my way back home.
Refrain:
