F G7 C G7 Am
Cool breeze on the river ripples to the shore
F G7
Wash away my troubles to the sea forever more
F G7 C G7 Am
Wind and willows whisper sadness is the sound
F G7
Tell a tale of my once happy world that's fallen down
Dm G7 C
Old man I might be going where you're bound
[Chorus]
G7 C Em Dm
Old man river I've come to talk again
G7 F C Dm
Yes I know you're tired cause your journey never ends
G7 C Em Dm
She's just like you he's movin' all the time
F Fm C
And I think she's movin' me out of h mind
[Verse 2]
F G7 C G7 Am
I wanna travel with you in your deep and emerald soul
F G7
That's the only way to make it peaceful like before
F G7 C G7 Am
We used to touch at midnight but now I feel she's gone
F G7
Even though she's lying next to me I feel alone
Dm G7 C
Ol' man it looks like time to travel on
[Chorus]
G7 C Em Dm
Old man river I've come to talk again
G7 F C Dm
Yes I know you're tired cause your journey never ends
G7 C Em Dm
She's just like you she's movin' all the time
F Fm C
And I think she's movin' me out of her mind
