[F] [F] [F] [F] [Bb] [Bb] [F] [F] [C7] [F] [F]
[F] Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry
[F] And I showed the clouds how to cover up a [G] clear blue [C7] sky
And the [F] tears that I cried for that [F7] woman,
are gonna [Bb] flood you Big River
Then [F] I'm gonna sit right [C7] here until I [F] die
{c: }
[F]I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
[F] And it tore me up every time I heard her [G] drawl, southern [C7] drawl
Then I [F] heard my dream was back [F7] downstream,
[Bb] cavortin' in Davenport
And I [F] followed you, Big [C7] River, when you [F] called
{c: }
[F] [F] [F] [F] [Bb] [Bb] [F] [F] [C7] [F] [F]
[F] Then you took me to St. Louis later on down the river
[F] A freighter said she's been here but she's [G] gone, boy, she's [C7] gone
[F] I found her trail in Memphis, but she [Bb] just walked up the block
She raised a [F] few eyebrows and then she [C7] went on down a[F]lone
{c: }
[F] Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on
[F] Take that woman on down to New Or[G]leans, New Or[C7]leans
[F] Go on, I've had enough, dump my [Bb] blues down in the gulf
[F] She loves you, Big [C7] River, more than [F] me
{c: }
[F] Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry
[F] And I showed the clouds how to cover up a [G] clear blue [C7] sky
And the [F] tears that I cried for that [F7] woman, are gonna [Bb] flood you Big River
Then [F] I'm gonna sit right [C7] here until I [F] die
