(verse 1)
[D]I never had no re[G]grets, boys;[A]
Not for nothing I've[D] done.
I owed the devil some d[G]ebts, boys[A],
Paid them all up b[D]ut one.
[G]And I don't even reg[D]ret the living
[A]That I'll be leaving be[D]hind.
I've gotten weary of sear[G]ch[-]in[A]g
For something I couldn't fi[D]nd.
(chorus)
I'm going do[A]wn to the shade
By the r[D]iver one more time,
And feel the br[A]eeze on my face before [D]I die.
I'm gonna le[G]ave whatever's left of my l[D]uck to the losers,
Then bend me d[A]ow[-]n [A7]
and kiss the world good[D]bye.
(verse 2)
Come to lucky-in-lovin'
I never had no complaints.
They never said I was evil,
But then, I wasn't no saint.
I'm just a river that rolled forever
And never got to the sea.
I ain't blaming nobody;
I had it coming to me.
(chorus)
I'm going do[A]wn to the shade
By the r[D]iver one more time,
And feel the br[A]eeze on my face before [D]I die.
I'm gonna le[G]ave whatever's left of my l[D]uck to the losers,
Then bend me d[A]ow[-]n [A7]
and kiss the world good[D]bye.
