Big River

Grateful Dead
 A
 Well I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,
 BE
Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.  
 AD
 Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,
 AE7A
And I'm a gonna sit right here until I die.

 A
I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota,
 AB
She tore me up everything I heard her drawl,
 E
That southern drawl.
 A
Well I heard my dream went back downstream,
 D
Cavortin' in Davenport,
 AE7A
And I followed you big river when you called.

Well I followed her down to St. Louie,
Later on down the river,
Trader said she's been here,
But she's gone, boy, she's gone.
Well I followed her down to Memphis,
But she just walked off the bus,
She raised a few eyebrows and she went on down alone.

Well I've gotten on down to Baton Rouge,
River Queen roll on,
Take that woman down to New Orleans, New Orleans.
I give up, I've had enough,
Followed my blues on down to the gulf,
She loves you big river more than me.
