Chorus:
[E7]Let it rain, [Eflat6]let it pour,
[E7]Let it rain a whole lot more,
[A]'Cause I got them deep river [E]blues.
[E7]Let the rain drive right on,
[E7]Let the waves sweep along,
[A]'Cause I got them deep river [E]blues. [B7] (→slide up one fret) [B7]
[E7]My old gal's [Eflat6]a good old pal,
[E7]And she looks like a water fowl,
[A]When I get them deep river [E]blues.
[E7]Ain't no one to cry for me,
[E7]And the fish all go out on a spree
[A]When I get them deep river [E]blues. [B7] (→slide up one fret) [B7]
[E7]Give me back [Eflat6]my old boat,
[E7]I'm gonna sail if she'll float,
[A]'Cause I got them deep river [E]blues,
[E7]I'm goin' back to Muscle Shoals,
[E7]Times are better there I'm told,
[A]Cause I got them deep river [E]blues. [B7] (→slide up one fret) [B7]
[Chorus]
[E7]If my boat [Eflat6]sinks with me.
[E7]I'll go down, don't you see,
[A]'Cause I got them deep river [E]blues,
[E7]Now I'm gonna say goodbye,
[E7]And if I sink, just let me die,
[A]'Cause I got them deep river [E]blues. [B7] (→slide up one fret) [B7]
