CAPO 2
INTRO: D A B A E B
[B]I can't say looking [D]back right now just [A]where our love went [B]wrong
But the [B]hard cold fact is [A]she's not here she's [B]gone
[B]Made me a promise [D]she'd be true till the [A]rivers all ran [B]dry
[B]The rivers still runnin' [A]but she's long said g[B]oodbye
That's why I'm [E]down on the [B]bottom
Where the [D]Moccasin's King and the [A]big tall cypress [B]grow
Seems the [E]only place that a country boy can [B]find some peace of mind
And get back [A]up, [E] is on the [B]bottom[D] [A] [B] [A] [E] [B]
Got [B]friends in the world [D]outside but none [A]quite like ol' Cajun [B]Joe
He [B]lives down a slough where the [A]river used to [B]flow
[B]Worked real hard [D]most of his life till the [A]pushin' came to [B]shove
[B]Gave it all he had [A]but he just couldn't rise [B]above
CHORUS:
That's why he's [E]down at the [B]bottom
Where the [D]alligator swims and the [A]old grey moss hangs [B]low
Seems the [E]only place that a country boy can [B]find some piece of mind
And get back [A]up, [E] is on the [B]bottom
I can get back [A]up [E] here on the [B]bottom
On the [A]Natchez[E] river [B]bottom
OUTRO:
[D] [A] [B] [A] [E] [B]
