Meet Me At The Creek

 E                     D
Well I'm standin' all alone
       A           G
By the river of my home
 E                               
Thinkin' 'bout the days I've left 
   B7
behind
 E               D
All the years I rode
       A           G
Not a nickel can I show
         E             B7    
And the river helps to ease my 
          E
worried mind


[Verse 2]
          E              D
Well the river run all night
          A               G
Lord, the river runs all day
  E                                
I can't run no more 'cause I'm here
     B7
 to stay
  E                 D
I had an eye for trouble
         A                G
And I've lived a life of pain
      E                   B7      
I sit back and let that water heal
     E
 my brain


[Chorus]
 D                       E
I'm letting go of all my trouble
 D                             B7
I think I'll be right here to stay
 E                          D 
Well the water keeps a-churnin' 
                A        G
while my poor heart is burnin'
 E           B7            E
Muddy water, take my pain away

  E                        D
Well one thing I want to know
          A                G
Lord, is where we people go
      E                          
When everything comes crashin' to 
     B7
the ground
   E              D
Meet me at the creek
         A                G
Grab a beer and tap your feet
 E             B7              E
See that muddy water flowin' down


[Chorus]
 D                         E
I'm letting go of all my trouble
 D                             B7
I think I'll be right here to stay
          E                D  
Well the water keeps a-churnin' 
         A                G
while my poor heart is burnin'
  E           B7           E
Muddy water, take my pain away

Back to bluegrass strumming: E E B7

Dun| Dun Dun| Dun Dun|Dun Dun|

          Chromatic walkdown: E G F#
 F E G F# F Em (drawn out strum -> 
jam on E minor)

          Jam goes on for like 4 or 
5 minutes floating around E minor. 
Towards the end it
          transitions to Em D Em F#m
 a few times before walking up E F# 
G A. It's pretty weird.
          I'm not exactly sure how 
to explain it, you'll have to listen
 real carefully.
          Next part transitioning 
out is kinda tough but you should be
 able to get it. I'm ~85%
          sure the chords are right
