professional singer and here's a [C] song I was doing back then.

[F] [C] [Fm]
[F]
I'm going to sing a song called the big river.
And they told me every time I heard [G] a draw [C] southern draw.
[F] Then I heard my dream went back down [Bb] stream.
The Horton and Davenport.
[F] And the hollowed up [C] big river when [Fm] you call.
[F] [Ab]
[F] [Bb] [Ab]
[F] [D] [C] [Ab]
[F] Then you took me to St.
Louis.
Later on down the river.
Afraid I said she's been here but [G] she's gone.
Boy [C] she's gone.
I [F] found a trail in Memphis.
[A] [Bb] But she just walked up the block.
[Gm] She [F] raised a few [C] eyebrows.
And went on down [Fm] the road.
[F] Once you bat it down.
The Baton Rouge.
River queen rolled it on.
Take that woman on down.
To New [G] Orleans.
To [C] New Orleans.
[E] [F] Go on I've had enough.
[Am] Now [Bb] my blues down in a gulp.
[F] She loves you [C] big river.
More [Fm] than me.
[F] [Ab] Love you [F] more than me babe.
[Ab]
[F] [Bb] [Fm]
[F] [C] [Fm]
[F] Yes I taught the weeping willow.
How to cry cry cry.
[Cm] [F] Showed the clouds how to cover.
A [G] clear blue [C] sky.
And [F] the tears I cried for that woman.
[A] [Bb] Gonna flood you big river.
[F] And I'm gonna sit [C] right here.
Until [Fm] I die.
[F] [Ab]
