Cora Is Gone Song Lyrics and Chords by Flatt and Scruggs

 

Cora Is Gone
Recorded by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs
Written by Odell McLeod
C 
The wind through the night is blowing so lonesome
 
Singing to me a  
G7 
song
C 
A whippoorwill call is just a reminder
 
Pretty girls have  
G7 
hearts made of  
C 
stone
 
I'll  
F 
wake with the blues at  
C 
dawn
 
My  
F 
darling Cora is  
C 
gone
I don't know why she told me goodbye
 
But my darling  
G7 
Cora is  
C 
gone
The ring that she wears I bought for her finger
 
Purchased her raiment so  
G7 
fine
C 
Gave her my last green back dollar
 
And now she's  
G7 
left me be
C 
hind
Repeat #2
Drifting along like a brush on a river
 
Caring not where I  
G7 
roam
C 
Going to live in a deep forest
 
Dark hollow will  
G7 
be my new  
C 
home
Repeat #2
