Big River

E E Well I taught the weeping willow how to cry, And I showed the clouds how to cover F#7 B7 up a clear blue sky E But the tears that I cried For that women are gonna A Flood you Big River and E B7 I'm gonna sit right here E untill I die E I met her accidentally in St. Paul Minnasota , And it tore me up every time I F#7 B7 heard her drawl, southern drawl E Then I heard my dream was A back down stream cavortin in E Davenport , and I followed you B7 E Big River, when you called Fill: E A B7 E Then you took me to St. Louis later on down the river , a freighter said shes been here F#7 B7 but shes gone , boy shes gone E I found her trail in Memphis A but she just walked up the block E she raised a few eyebrows and B7 E then she went on down alone Now wont you batter down by Batton Rouge , river queen rolling on, Take that women on down F#7 B7 to New Orleans, New Orleans E Go on I' ve had enough dump A my blues down in the gulf E B7 cause she loves you Big River E More then me.
