[Intro]
[G6] [Em] [B7] [Em] [B7]
[Em] [B7] [C] [G] [G6]
[Verse 1]
[Em]Last Saturday [B7]evening I c[Em]ame to the old oak [B7]tree
[Em]It stands beside the [B7]river where [C]you were to meet [G]me [G6]
[Em]On the ground your [B7]glove I found with a [Em]note addressed to [B7]me
And it [Em]read "Dear Love, I've [B7]done you wrong, now [C]I must set you [G]free" [G6]
[Cborus]
[B7]Moody River, [Em]more deadly [B7]than the vainest k[Em]nife
[B7]Moody River, your [G]muddy water[G/A] [G/B] [C]took my baby's [G]life [G6]
[Instrumental Break]
[Em] [B7] [Em] [B7]
[Em] [B7] [C] [G] [G6]
[Verse 2]
[Em]I looked into your [B7]muddy waters and [Em]what did I [B7]see
[Em]I saw a lonely, [B7]lonely man just [C]looking back at [G]me [G6]
[Em]Tears were in his [B7]eyes and a [Em]prayer on his [B7]lips
And [Em]with the glove of [B7]his lost love there [C]at his finger [G]tips [G6]
[Cborus]
[B7]Moody River, [Em]more deadly [B7]than the vainest [Em]knife
[B7]Moody River, your [G]muddy water[G/A] [G/B] [C]took my baby's [G]life
[outro]
[B7]Moody River, your [G]muddy water[G/A]s [G/B] [C] took my baby's[G] life [G6]
