Well, the creek will still be running seven days a week

                                       E7    E7
Your leaving me won't change a doggone thing

    A                                                D    D
The roof on the kitchen will still have the same ol' leak

    A
And after you're gone the creek will

D               E              A    A
Still be running  seven days a week

      D
After all these years all of a sudden

A
You think you're gonna be boss

               D
But you should know me well enough by now to know

        B7                    E7
I ain't never gonna ride that hoss

         A
There'll never be a day if I got something to say

        A7                 D
I won't stand right up and speak

A
After you're gone the creek will

D               E              A   D   E   A
Still be running  seven days a week

       A
In the fall of the year the leaves on the trees out back

A
Will still turn brown

                                                     E7   E7
And in the heat of the summer the well will still go dry

    A
The boards on the floor just inside the door

     D
Will still have the same old squeak

A
After you're gone the creek will

D               E              A
Still be running  seven days a week

      D
After all these years all of a sudden

A
You think you're gonna be boss

               D
But you should know me well enough by now to know

        B7                    E7
I ain't never gonna ride that hoss

         A
There'll never be a day if I got something to say

        A7                 D
I won't stand right up and speak

    A
And after you're gone the creek will

D               E              A
Still be running  seven days a week

     A
Yeah after you're gone the creek will

D               E              A    A
Still be running  seven days a week
