[Intro]
D G A Bm G A D
[Verse 1]
D G Baby's gone and i don't know why A Bm She headed out this morning D G Like a rusty shot in a hollow sky A D She left me without warning
[Verse 2]
D G Sooner than the dogs could bark A Bm Faster than the sun rose D G Down to the banks in an old mule cart A D She took a flat boat 'cross the shallows
[Chorus]
G Left me in my tears to drown A Bm She left a baby daughter D G Now the river's wide and deep and brown A D She's crossing muddy waters
[Verse 3]
D G Tobacco standing in the fields A Bm Be rotten come November D G And a bitter heart will not reveal A D A spring that love remembers
[Verse 4]
D G When that sweet brown girl of mine A Bm Hair black as a raven D G We broke the bread and drank the wine A D From a jug that she'd been saving
[Chorus]
G Left me in my tears to drown A Bm She left a baby daughter D G Now the river's wide and deep and brown A D She's crossing muddy waters
[Verse 4]
D G Baby's crying and the daylight's gone A Bm That big oak tree is groaning D G In a rush of wind and a river song A D I can hear my true love moaning D G Crying for her baby child A Bm Oh crying for her husband D G Crying for that rivers wild A D To take her from her loved ones
[Chorus]
G Left me in my tears to drown A Bm She left a baby daughter D G Now the river's wide and deep and brown A D She's crossing muddy waters
[Outro]
D G Now the river's wide and deep and brown A D She's crossing muddy waters
D G A Bm D G A D D D
