Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][G][A][D]

[Verse 1]
I went [D]down to the
river to watch the fish swim by
But I got [G]to the river so lonesome
I wanted to [D]die[A][D]
So, [A]I jumped in the river, oh,
but the river was [D]dry

[Verse 2]
She's [D]long [G]gone
[D]Now I'm [A]lonesome [D]blue

[Verse 3]
I [D]had me a woman who couldn't be true
She made me lose my money
and she made me blue
[A]Now I n[G]eed a woman that I can lean on
But my [D]leanin' post [A]just
got up and [D]gone

[Verse 4]
She's [D]long [G]gone
[D]Now [A]I'm lonesome blu[D]e,

[Interlude 1]
yeah
[D][G][D][A][G][D]

[Verse 5]
I'm gonna [D]find me a river,
one that's cold as ice
When [G]I find me that river,
I'm gonna pay [A]the [D]price
I'm goin' [A]down in it three times and
I'm only comin' up [D]twice

[Verse 6]
Because she's [D]long [G]gone
[D]Now I'm [A]lonesome [D]blue

[Verse 7]
She [D]told me on Sunday she
was checkin' me out
Along about Monday she
was [G]nowhere about
And here it is Tuesday, I ain't had no news
I got [D]the gone but not [A]forgotten blues
[D]

[Verse 8]
She's long [G]gone
[D]Now [A]I'm lonesome blu[D]e
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

[Verse 9]
She's [D]long [G]gone
[D]Now [A]I'm lonesome blu[D]e[G]
