and then we'll play the Ninth Pound Hammer.

_ [Bm] This [D] ninth pound hammer _ just a little too heavy, Lord for my side, baby for my side. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Take this hammer and shorten the caffin, oh tell him I'm gone, _ tell him I'm gone. _ _ _ _ _
If he asks you, oh where I went to, tell him that you don't know, baby you don't know.

_ _ _ _ _ _ This is a hammer that killed John Henry, it laid him low, baby it laid him low. _ _ _
This old hammer killed my buddy, but it won't kill me, baby it couldn't kill [Bm] me.

_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Oh roll on buddy, won't you roll so slow, baby how can I roll, where that wheel won't go. _ _
Oh roll on buddy, oh take your time, oh I'm broke down and I can't make mine. _
