Doc Watson - Ramshackle Shack Chords

[Verse 1]
A                                        D
There’s a ramshackle shack down in old Caroline
                     A                     E
And it’s callin’ me back to that heart of mine
             A                         D
those big blue eyes,  I wish I could see
                 A    E               A
Down in old Caroline there I long to be
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                A                       D
Those big blue eyes that sparkle with love
             A             E
Sent down to me from up above
             A                         D
And if I had wings like a beautiful dove
                        A    E           A
don’t you know I’d fly away to the man I love
 
[Verse 2]
                     A                         D
When the whippoorwills call   at the close of day
                     A                     E
We would sing love songs    and he would say
             A                    D
My love for you       will never die
                 A     E               A
Then we bid farewell   such a sad good-bye
 
[Instrumental]
A      D    A    E    A   D   A  E  D
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
                  A                         D
When it’s harvest time    down in old Caroline
                  A                     E
I’ll be driftin’ back   to that man of mine
                        A                      D
Spend the rest of my days with the man that I love
                     A    E               A
With the help of the Lord up in Heaven above
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                A                       D
Those big blue eyes that sparkle with love
             A             E
Sent down to me from up above
             A                         D
And if I had wings like a beautiful dove
                        A    E           A
don’t you know I’d fly away to the man I love
