[Dm] [Bb]
[Dm] [Bb] [C]
[F] James [Bb] River Blues,
[F] I just heard the [Bb] awful news
I
[F] could steer around the rocks, but they're busting down the docks
[Bb]
[F] [Bb] [F]
James [Bb] River Blues,
[F] that train came [Bb] on through
[F] And the work's [Bb] gotten slow,
[F] now where's the boatman to go?
[Bb] I [Dm] think I'll float [Bb] on down [Dm] to Richmond [Bb] Town
They
[Dm] don't need us [Bb] anymore, hauling freight from [Dm] shore to shore
That big iron [Bb] haul's much more than we ever [F] could before
I've [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
[Dm] [Bb]
[Dm] [Bb] [C]
[F] seen good men going wrong, I've seen bad ones getting right
As that river [Bb] rolls along,
[F] I'll be stepping out tonight
[Dm] On the cool [Bb] flow, [Dm] floating down, [Bb] down below
The [F] bridge to the [Bb] water's edge, [F] from the ridge to [Bb] the ledge
[Dm] From the hills [Bb] to the sea, [Dm] I'll become [Bb] a memory
[G]
[F] [Bb] James River Blues,
[F] [Bb] James River Blues,
[F] James River [Bb] Blues
[F] [Bb]
[G] [Dm] [Bb]
