Backwater Blues

E - E7 E - E7 E - E7 E - E7

E                        A             E - E7
Where the hells the sun, just rain for days
E        A               B7               E - E7
All this river risin and cryins washin us away
E            A    B7                 E    A
If we let go now, we'll let our love drown
           E                B7              E - E7
Baby, this cold blue river, might never go down

E                   A                     E - E7
So put up your bags and get away from the door
E           A                  B7          E - E7
Put up that rusty pistol baby, I ain't mad anymore
E               A   B7                  E    A
If you leave me now and head for higher ground
           E                 B7
Baby, this river of blue backwater
                 E - E7
Is gonna take me down

E     A               B7
Baby, I can't let you go
        E                          A
I'll go under if you leave me here alone
      E                       B7
These backwater blues will be gone
           E - E7
If we hold on
E         A                    B7
Baby just let these hard times roll
           E                   A
We'll wade outta here when the water is low
      E                       B7
These backwater blues will be gone
           E - E7
If we hold on

E                      A                 E - E7
This river ain't deep, its just a little cold
E           A                    B7                E - E7
So put your arms around me we'll find us a steppin stone
E            A   B7                     E   A
Baby hold on tight, cause dry land's in sight
                      E                      B7
We'll be out of these backwater blues before long
           E - E7
If we hold on

E     A               B7
Baby, I can't let you go
        E                          A
I'll go under if you leave me here alone
      E                       B7
These backwater blues will be gone
           E - E7
If we hold on
E         A                    B7
Baby just let these hard times roll
           E                   A
We'll wade outta here when the water is low
      E                       B7
These backwater blues will be gone
           E A
If we hold on
           E                       B7
Baby these backwater blues will be gone
           E - E7 E - E7 E - E7 E
If we hold on...
