The Lonesome River by Bob Dylan and Ralph Stanley

A                                      
I sit here alone on the banks of the river

                  D                        A
The lonseome wind blows and the water runs high

                    D                            A
I can hear a voice call [from] out there in the darkness

               E                      A
But I sit here alone too lonesome to cry

chorus

A
Oh the water rolls high on the river at midnight

I sit on the shore to grievin' and to cry The woman I love she left me this morning

               E                        A
With no-one to love or kiss me goodnight

We met there one night on the banks of the river sat there holdin' hands and makin' a vow That we never would part and be happy together But a new love she's found - she's gone with him now. Oh the water rolls high on the river at midnight I sit on the shore to grievin' and to cry The woman I love she left me this morning With no-one to love or kiss me goodnight
