[Chorus]
A D A
White clear rum blues on the river & run
D A
loveless in the darkness flooding through the rain & run
D E7 A
signalling with my red cigarette
D E7 A
won't somebody please connect
E7 A E7
it's long gone dark & no moon yet
A D A
blood strong rum take your blues to the river & run
[Verse]
E
Listen to the long haul volunteers
D E
singing to a tune of shifting gears
those desperado racketeers
D A E
they never fade too far to steer
and there's a team in the sewer of a jail
D E
digging a hole with a two inch nail
while a rat goes to sell his tale
D A E
they won't believe that the bid can fail
[Chorus]
A D A
White clear rum blues on the river & run
D A
loveless in the darkness flooding through the rain & run
D E7 A
signalling with my red cigarette
D E7 A
won't somebody please connect
E7 A E7
it's long gone dark & no moon yet
A D A
blood strong rum take your blues to the river & run
[Verse]
E
Everybody knows somebody on the run
D E
& we've all considered a gun
and from floor number forty one
D A E
don't the drop look like it could be fun
no matter now deep the river is
D E
find somebody who you can swim with
there's always bound to be a bridge
D A E
and the world looks different from the ridge
[Chorus]
A D A
White clear rum blues on the river & run
D A
loveless in the darkness flooding through the rain & run
D E7 A
signalling with my red cigarette
D E7 A
won't somebody please connect
E7 A E7
it's long gone dark & no moon yet
A D A
blood strong rum take your blues to the river & run
[Music Verse]
EDE DAE DE DAE
[Chorus]
A D A
White clear rum blues on the river & run
D A
loveless in the darkness flooding through the rain & run
D E7 A
signalling with my red cigarette
D E7 A
won't somebody please connect
E7 A E7
it's long gone dark & no moon yet
A D A
blood strong rum take your blues to the river & run
