CHORUS:
F            Am           F                Am
Moody River, more deadly, than the vainest knife.

F                 C7           F              F   Am
Moody River, your muddy water, took my baby's life.
#1.
Am            E7       Am                  E7
Last Saturday evening, came to the old Oak tree.

Am                   E7           F                F Am
It stands beside the river, where you were to meet me.
#2.
Am                 E7                    Am
On the ground your glove I found, with a note

             E7
addressed to me.

   Am                    E7          
It read, Dear love, I've done you wrong,

    F              F   Am
now I must set you free.
#3.
Am        E7                   Am            E7
No longer can I live with this hurt and this sin,

  Am            E7             F              F     Am
I just couldn't tell you, that guy was just a friend.
CHORUS:
F            Am           F                Am
Moody River, more deadly, than the vainest knife.

F                 C7           F              F   Am
Moody River, your muddy water, took my baby's life.
#4.
  Am              E7               Am           E7
I looked into the muddy water, and what could I see?

  Am            E7               F               F  Am
I saw a lonely, lonely face just looking back at me.
#5.
Am           E7          Am            E7
Tears in his eyes, and a prayer on his lips,

Am               E7             F            F   Am
and the glove of his lost love, at his fingertips.
CHORUS:
F            Am           F                Am
Moody River, more deadly, than the vainest knife.

F                 C7           F              F   Am
Moody River, your muddy water, took my baby's life.
