[Intro]

E (G) E E (G) E A (C) A E (G) E B7 E (G) E

[Verse 1]

E
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry
E 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 E
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die

[Verse 2]

E
I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
E B7
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, southern drawl
E A
Then I heard my dream was back downstream, cavortin' in Davenport
E B7 E
And I followed you, Big River, when you called

[Break]

E (G) E E (G) E A (C) A E (G) E B7 E (G) E

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

E
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on
E B7
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans
E A
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf
E B7 E
She loves you, Big River, more than me

[Verse 5]

E
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
E 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 E
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
