Intro: [G] xxx , [C] xxx , [D] xxx , [Em] xxxx , [C] xxx , [D] xxx   ,[G]xxx

[G]baby'sx gone and i don't know w[C]hyx
she h[D]eadedx out this m[Em]orningx
like a rusty shot in a hollow [C] skyx
she l[D]eftx me without w[G]arningx

[G]soonerx than the dogs could bar[C]kxx
[D]fasterx than the [Em] sunx rose
down to the banks in an old mu[C]lex cart
she t[D]ookx a flat boat [G] 'crossx the shallows

left me in my t[C]earsx to drown
she l[D]eftx a baby dau[Em]ghterx
now the river's wide and deep and b[C]rownx
she's c[D]rossingx muddy w[G]atersx

[G]tobaccox standing in the fields [C] xxx
be [D] xxx rotten come nov[Em]emberx
and a bitter heart will not re[C]vealx
a spr[D]ingx that love re[G]membersx

when that sweet brown girl of mine
hair black as a raven
we broke the bread and drank the wine
from a jug that she'd been saving

left me in my t[C]earsx to drown
she l[D]eftx a baby dau[Em]ghterx
now the river's wide and deep and b[C]rownx
she's c[D]rossingx muddy w[G]atersx

baby's crying and the daylight's gone
that big oak tree is groaning
in a rush of wind and a river song
i can hear my true love moaning

crying for her baby child
oh crying for her husband
crying for that rivers wild
to take her from her loved ones

left me in my t[C]earsx to drown
she l[D]eftx a baby dau[Em]ghterx
now the river's wide and deep and b[C]rownx
she's c[D]rossingx muddy w[G]atersx
now the river's wide and deep and b[C]rownx
she's c[D]rossingx muddy w[G]atersx
