               Blues On The River 



Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo

[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
