Deep Dark Water

Written by Jim Reeves

	  		G                     C 
Alone and so lonesome bored and so blue 

                  G           A7              D7 
I got the urge to ramble so I took a drink or two 

   G             B7             C               G 
It tempted me to trifle then my true heart went astray 

     C                G              D7            G 
So I wandered in dark water and just threw my life away 


  D7                             G 
I know that it was wrong to fool around this way so long 

    A7                              D7 
Someone was sawing on the limb that I was sitting on 

         G          B7            C                  G 
I looked down and I found I could drown in deep dark water 

     C                G      D7       G 
So I cried when I realized I couldn't swim 


                               C 
A fool and his money calls for whiskey and for gin 

                        G               A7              D7 
Filled to the gills and falling for the weaknesses as a man 

     G           B7      C              G 
From one fool to another wrong is never right 

    C                 G                  D7           G 
I ignored advice from mother and brother look at me tonight 


D7                              G 
Unsteady as I go with deep dark water down below 

          A7                           D7 
They keep sawing louder on my limb and soon I'll have to go 

            G             B7        C                 G 
Life's been small hear my call as I fall in deep dark water 

           C                 G      D7        G 
Don't be a would-be king and tumble from your throne
