E I went down to the river, to watch the fish swim by A E(Stop)E But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die Oh Lord B7 E And then I jumped in the river but the doggone river was dry A E B7 E She's Long Gone and now I'm Lonesome Blues. E I had me a woman she couldn't be true Made me for my money and she made me blue A A man needs a woman that he can lean on E B7 E But my leanin' post is done left and gone A E B7 E She's Long Gone and now I'm Lonesome Blues. E A E B7 E E I'm gonna find me a river one that's cold as ice A E(Stop) E And when I find me that river Lord I'm gonna pay the price Oh Lord B7 E I'm goin' down in it three times but Lord I'm only comin' up twice A E B7 E Well she's Long Gone and now I'm Lonesome Blues. ?'s [email protected]
