Songtext

[Intro]
| E5 G5 - - | E - - - | - G5 - - | E - - - |
| -  -  - - |

[Verse 1]
      E                                    G5
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry,
E                                               F#         B7
 And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear  blue sky.
             E                                     A
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood
you Big River.
        E                B7               E5 G5
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die.

[Verse 2]
E  E
 I met her accidentally in St.
     G5     E
Paul,  Minnesota.
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl,
F#               B7
  Southern drawl.
       E                                     A
Then I heard my dream went back Downstream cavortin' in
Davenport,
      E                 B7
And I followed you, Big River,
                E5 G5
when you called.
E
 Oh, guitar

[Interlude]

| E - - - | A  -  - - | - - - - | E5 G5 - - |
| E - - - | B7 -  - - | - - - - | E  G5 - - |

[Verse 3]
E        E
 Then you took me to St.
               G5         E
Louis later on,  down the river.
                                                F#
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone,  boy,
           B7
she's gone.
       E
I found her trail in Memphis,
        A
but she just walked up the bluff.
             E                         B7                 E5 G5
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone.

[Verse 4]
E               E
 Now, won't you bat it down by Baton Rouge, River Queen,
G5        E
  roll it on.
Take that woman on down to New Orleans,
F#            B7
  New Orleans.
Go on,
E
 I've had enough;
        A
dump my blues down in the gulf.
E                  B7                  E5 G5
She loves you, Big River, more than me.
E
 Ah, yeah!

[Verse 5]
E      E                                    G5
 Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry,  cry,
   E
cry
                                               F#         B7
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear  blue sky.
