[E] [A]
[E] [Eb] [B]
[E]
I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by
But [A] I got to the river so lonesome I wanted [E] to die, oh Lord
[B] And then I jumped in the river but the doggone river [E] was dry
[A]
She's long gone [E] and [B] now I'm [E] lonesome blue
I had me a woman who couldn't be true
She made me for my money and she made me blue
[A] A man needs a woman that he can lean on
[E] But my leaning post is [B] done, left [E] and gone
[N]
