THE CAT CAME BACK chrom

American folk song

Key: Em

-4 6 6 6 -6* -6*

Now old Mis-ter John-son
-6* 7    6   6   7 -6*
Had trou-bles of his own
-4 6 6 6   6 -6*
He had a yel-low cat
-6*   7    6    6    7   -8
That would-n’t leave its home
-8 -8   -8 -8 -7
He tried and he tried
-6* 7    6   6 7 -6*
To give the cat a-way
-4 6   6 6 6 -6*

He gave it to a man

-6*-6* 7 6 7 -6*

Go-ing far, far a-way

-4 -4   6   -8   -7 -6* 7 7 6   -6*
But the cat came back the ver-y next day
-4   6   -8   -7
The cat came back
-6*    7    7   6 6 -6*-6*
They thought he was a gon-er
-4 -4   6   -8   -7
But the cat came back
-6* 7   -6*   6 -6* -4 6
It just could-n’t stay a-way
