[Ab] [D] [C]
[G] [D] [G]
A long and so lonesome, [C] bored and so blue, I got the urge [G] to ramble, [A] so I took a drink
[D] It [G] tempted me [B] to trifle, then [C] my true heart [G] went astray, [C] so I wandered in [G] dark water [D] and just threw my [G] life away
[D] I know that it was wrong to [G] fool around this way so long, [A] someone was sawing on the [Am] limb that I was sitting on
I [G] looked down and [B] I found [C]
in deep [G] dark water, [C] so I cried when I [G] realized [D] I couldn't [G] swim
A boom and his and me, [C] calls for whiskey and for gin, fell to the [G] gills and fallen [A] are the weaknesses [D] of man
[G] From one fool to [B] another, [C] wrong is [G] never right, [C] I ignored advice [G] from mother and [D] brother at me [G] tonight
[D] Unsteady as I go with deep [G] dark water down below, they [A] keep sawing louder on my limb [D] and soon I'll have to go, life's been [G] small
Hear [B] my call, as [C] I fall in deep [G] dark water, don't [C] be a would be king [G] and humble
[D] [G]
