The Ballad of Sleepy John by Jackie Greene This is my first time doing this, didn't see chords up for this song so I thought I'd give it a shot. This uses an A harmonica. intro: |F#m |A |D |A | x 5

^F#mAny day now^A the sky^D could fall ^A ^F#mAnd I'm not one ^Ato complai^Dn ^A ^F#mBut this don't f^Aeel like no para^Ddise at all ^A ^F#mDown on the corner ^Ain the rai^Dn ^A

^F#mOld Kentucky, h^Ae's a friend^D of mine ^A ^F#mHe got them Fayette ^ACounty blues^D ^A ^F#mAin't no woman e^Aver keep the ^Dman in line ^A ^F#mAnd there ain't no woman he^A can refuse ^D ^A

^EWell I stumbled in with my guitar And b^F#mought a drink behind the bar ^ESat in with the band until o^F#mh two D |D |A |A |E |E |E |E | Then I saaaaaaaaaaaaid:

^F#mtoo much whiskey m^Aake me tumbl^De home ^A ^F#mtoo much Jesus m^Aake me pray ^D ^A ^F#mtoo much love and L^Aord I feel so a^Dll alone ^A ^F#mbut that's all right mama, t^Ahat's OK ^D ^A

^F#mCause Sweet Serrita, ^Ashe's behi^Dnd the bar^A ^F#mShe's got the towel ^Ain her hand^D ^A ^F#mLord release her^A, she's only ^Dtwenty-four^A And she's^F#m doing the be^Ast that she ca^Dn ^A

Well ^EI don't know, but I been told That ^F#mfreedom is an open road But I^E guess it all depends on how you dr^F#mive D |D |A |A |E |E |E |E | While you're aliiiiiive

|F#m |A |D |A | x 4

^F#mNow people tell me ^AI'm the Luck^Dy One ^A ^F#mBut that don't matter m^Auch to me^D ^A ^F#mCause I ain't nothi^Ang but my f^Dather's son^A ^F#mAnd that's all I'm ever ^Agonna be^D ^A
