When the [A]last rose of [Bm]summer pricks my [D]fin[A]ger
And the [A]hot sun [Bm]chills me to the [D]bone
When I [A]can't hear the [Bm]song for the [D]sing[A]er
And I [F#m]can't tell my [E]pillow from a [D]stone
[E]I will walk a[A]lone by the [D]black muddy [A]river
And [F#m]sing me a [E]song of my [D]own
[E]I will walk a[A]lone by the [D]black muddy [A]river
And [F#m]dream me a [E]dream of my [D]own
When the last bolt of sunshine hits the mountain
And the stars start to splatter in the sky
When the moon splits the southwest horizon
With the scream of an eagle on the fly
I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And listen to the ripples as they moan
I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And sing me a song of my own
[Bm] Black muddy [E]river
[A]Roll on for[F#m]ever
Don't [E]care how deep or [A]wide
[E]If you got another [A]side
D C#m (or A/C#)
Roll muddy river
[Bm(7)]Roll muddy [A]river
[D]Black muddy [E] river [A]roll
When it seems like the night will last forever
And there's nothing left to do but count the years
When the strings of my heart start to sever
And stones fall from my eyes instead of tears
I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And dream me a dream of my own
I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And sing me a song of my own
And sing me a song of my own
