Hank Williams - Long gone lonesome blues

I went ^Edown to the river to watch the fish swim by; But I ^Agot to the river so lonesome I wanted to ^B7die..., oh ^Elord! And then I ^B7jumped in the river, but the doggone river was ^Edry. shes ^Elong ^Agone, and now ^EIm ^B7lonesome ^Eblue.

I ^Ehad me a woman who couldnt be true. She made me for my money and she made me blue. A ^Aman needs a woman that he can lean on, But my ^Eleanin post is done ^B7left and ^Egone. Shes ^Elong ^Agone, and now ^EIm ^B7lonesome ^Eblue.

Im gonna ^Efind me a river, one thats cold as ice. And when I ^Afind me that river, lord Im gonna pay the ^B7price, oh ^Elord! Im goin ^B7down in it three times, but lord Im only comin up ^Etwice. Shes ^Elong ^Agone, and now ^EIm ^B7lonesome ^Eblue.

She ^Etold me on sunday she was checkin me out; Long about monday she was nowhere about. And ^Ahere it is tuesday, aint had no news. I ^Egot them gone but not for^B7gotten ^Eblues. Shes ^Elong ^Agone, and now ^EIm ^B7lonesome ^Eblue.
