_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by
_ _ But _ [A] I got to the river so lonesome I wanted [E] to die, oh lord
And [B] then I jumped in the river but the doggone river [E] was dry _ _ _ _ _
She's long _ [A] _ gone [E] and _ now [B] I'm _ _ [E] lonesome blue _ _ _ _ _
I had me a woman who couldn't be true
She made me for my money and she made me blue
[A] A man needs a woman that he can lean on
[E] But my leaning post [B] is done, left and [E] gone _ _ _ _ _ _
She's long [A] _ gone [E] and _ now [B] I'm _ _ [E] lonesome blue _ _ _ _ _ _

I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice
_ And _ when [A] I find me that river, lord I'm gonna pay the [E] _ _ price, oh lord
I'm [B] going down in it three times but lord [F#m] I'm only coming [E] up twice _ _ _ _
She's long _ [A] _ gone _ [E] and now [B] I'm _ _ [E] lonesome blue _ _ _ _
_ She told me on Sunday she was checking me out
Along about Monday she was nowhere about
[A] And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no news
[E] I got them gone but [B] not forgotten [E] blue _ _ _ _ _
She's _ _ [A] long gone _ [E] and now _ [B] I'm _ _ lonesome blue _ _ _ _
