I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by 
       C                                        G             
But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die, oh Lord 
G            D                                            G     
And then I jumped in the river, but the doggone river was dry 
              G    C         G           D        G                          
Oh well he's long gone, an' now an' I'm lonesome blue
G  [WALK]                                             
I had me a man who couldn't be true He made me for my money and he made me blue 
       C                                              G                    D        G 
Well a woman needs a man that she can lean on But my leanin' post is done left and gone 
              G    C         G           D        G                          
Oh well he's long gone, an' now an' I'm lonesome blue
 [ INST G  .  D  .  G  .  . ]                                                           
I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice 
And when I find me that river, Lord I'm gonna pay the price, oh Lord 
I'm goin' down in it three times, but Lord I'm only comin' up twice 
              G    C         G           D        G                          
Oh well he's long gone, an' now an' I'm lonesome blue
[WALK]  He told me on Sunday he was checkin' me out Long about Monday he was nowhere about
And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no newsI got them gone but not forgotten blues 
              G    C         G           D        G                          
Oh well he's long gone, an' now and I'm lonesome blue
Oh well he's long gone, an' now and I'm lonesome blue
