[E]
[B] [A] [Em]
[E] I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by.
[A] But when I got to the river, so lonesome I [E] wanted to die.
So [B] then I jumped in the river, but the [A] doggone river was [Bm] dry.
[E] She's a [A] [Em] [E]
[E] lonesome blue.
I had me a woman, she couldn't be true.
She made me for my money and she made [A] me blue.
A man needs a woman that he can lean on.
But [E] my leaning post is done, left and gone.
She's a [A] [E] [B]
[E] lonesome blue.
[B] [E]
I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice.
And [A] when I find me that river, Lord I'm gonna pay [E] the price.
So long.
[B] I'm going down in it three [A] times, but Lord I'm only [Em] coming up twice.
[E] She's a [A]
[Em] [B] [E] lonesome blue.
She told me on Sunday she was checking me out.
Along about Monday she was nowhere about.
[A] And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no [E] news.
I got them gone, but not forgotten blue.
She's a [A]
[E] [B] [E] lonesome blue.
