ABRAHAM, MARTIN, AND JOHN
Written by Dick Holler, recorded by Dion

[D] Has anybody [F#m7] here [Em7] seen my [A] old friend Abraham?
[D] Can you [F#m7]tell me where he's [Em]go—[A]--ne?
[Bm] He freed a lot of [F#m(7)] people,
But it [Em] seems the good, they [G] die [A] young.
[G] I just [A] looked 'round and he was [G] gone. [D]

[Bm] Didn't you [F#m7] love the [Em] things that they [G] stood [A] for?
[Bm] Didn't they [F#m7] try to [Em] find some [G] good for [D] you and me?
And [C9] we'll be free...
...[G] someday, [Em]soon, we're gonna be [A] wonderin'...[D]


D = X00232
F#m7 = 242222
Em = 022000
G = 320033
A = 002220
Bm = 224432
C9 = 332033

Have fun. D seemed to work best for the simplest voicings for that m7 sound.
