This is just my first try at uploading to any site so bear with me:
Hope it works out. Any help appreciated.
Let me know how you like the song... It's one of my favorites.
COLUMBUS STOCKADE BLUES
I
1.) Way down, in Columbus Georg - ia
V I
Wan-na go back to Tennessee
I
Way down, in Columbus Stock-ade
V I
My friends all turned their backs on me
Chorus
IV I
Well you can go, and leave me if you want to
IV V
Nev-er let me cross your mind
I
For in your heart, you love a-noth-er
V I
Leave, lit-tle dar-lin, I don't mind
2.) Last night, as I lay sleep-ing
I dream-ed I held you in my arms.
When I a-woke, I was mis-tak-en,
I was lookin' through prison bars.
Chorus
Anybody remember where or when this was originally done?
I remember it being one of the first "singin'" songs that
turned me on to guitar playing. I guess most every picker
probably started out with "Wildwood Flower" as their first
instrumental?
Changes and/or additions welcome

what is with the roman numerals ?
This song was one of the earliest hit recordings in country music. Darby & Tarlton's 1927 version established this song as a classic. Other versions by Bill Monroe, The Country Gentlemen, et al.
PS Charissa, think of the I,IV,V as C,F,G or G,C,D (for example) respectively!!!
