(A Hendrix Em7#9 sounds alright to bounce off of with the Em7, too)
Em7Standin' out in the night, Elizah took me down
To see the Widow give Rain to the town. It's against the law To be a tonic man, But the Widow know She's got the upper hand.
B7So I went on in Feelin' kinda wheezy.
You know she soothed my mind, boys,
She rA7ocked me kinda slow and kinda easy All daEm7y and all night.
Em7"Pick a cardEm7 'fore you go-- It's a long trip to Mexico."
Em7Elizah waiteEm7d by the door, "I can't stay here anymore, no, no."
B7Then she took a pill She washed her feet in the mud
She said "Look out son,
You know,A7 I just started a flood For forty days and forty nights".
Then I got my shoes, And 'Lizah called my name. She said it looked to her Like it's gonna rain. Then the Cotton King He came in chokin' And the Widow laughed and said: "I ain't jokin'"--
B7"Think what you want" She said, "Now don't ya tease me.
I just fell in love, boy,
SoA7 rock me kinda slow and kinda easy, All day and all night."
Em7Sweet William said With a drunken head:
"If I had a boat, I'd help y'all float". Elizah stood there watching William in a trance, As the widowed saint done the St. Vitus dance.
B7But just then an old man With a boat named "Breezy"
Said: "You can ride with Clyde, boys,
If youA7 rock it kinda slow and rock it kinda easy, All Em7day and all night".
