From: GUEST,Martunes

can someone help me with the chords for the Carter family's version of this tune?
I've got part of it figured, but it sounds a bit off to me.

G
Well, I ain't going to work tomorrow
G                   D    -    G
And I may not work next day
         C                              G
Well I ain't going to work to-morrow
                        D       G
For it be a wet, rainy day


I'm a-going to leave this country

I'm a-going around this world

I'm a-going to leave this country

For the sake of one little girl

And I may not work next day
       C             F    C G
Well I ain't going to work to-morrow
                D       G
For it be a wet, rainy day

Thanks.
Is this the correct positioning?
It still sounds awkward to me? Maybe I'm not playing the chords in the right position or making the change fast enough.

Well I (C)ain't going to (F)work (C)to - (G)morrow

Thanks again though.
