Moody River

Refrain:

G            Em          G      
Moody river, more deadly than 
          Em
the vainest knife,

G                 G7           C 
Moody river, your muddy water 
 C/B Am7 Am7/G  G
took my ba - by's life.


Em            B7        Em      
Last Saturday evenin', came to 
            B7
the old oak tree;

    Em                B7          
It stands beside the river where 
C  C/B  Am7   Am7/G  G
you     were to meet  me.

Em                  B7           
On the ground your glove I found 
       Em               B7
with a note addressed to me,

   Em                     B7      
It read "Dear love, I've done you 
           C  C/B  Am7 Am7/G  G
wrong, now I must  set  you free."

Em          B7                   
"No longer can I live with this 
Em            B7
hurt and this sin,

Em                B7            C
"I just couldn't tell you that 
  C/B  Am7 Am7/G   G
guy was just   a   friend."


Repeat Refrain:

   Em              B7             
I looked into the muddy water and 
Em           B7
what could I see?

   Em            B7            
I saw a lonely, lonely face just 
   C    C/B  Am7  Am7/G  G
look - in' back  at    me.

Em            B7         Em     
Tears in his eyes, and a prayer 
        B7
on his lips,

Em               B7            C 
And the glove of his lost love at
 C/B Am7  Am7/G   G
 his fin - ger - tips.
