Crossing Muddy Waters Lyrics

I decided to put the chords up because no-one else has yet. I personallly think this
song sounds better with capo on the second fret. and when you start the song hammer on the
E string twice.
Intro: G,C,D,Em,C,D,G
baby's gone and i don't know why
she headed out this morning
like a rusty shot in a hollow sky
she left me without warning
sooner than the dogs could bark
faster than the sun rose
down to the banks in an old mule cart
she took a flat boat 'cross the shallows
left me in my tears to drown
she left a baby daughter
now the river's wide and deep and brown
she's crossing muddy waters
tobacco standing in the fields
be rotten come november
and a bitter heart will not reveal
a spring that love remembers
when that sweet brown girl of mine
hair black as a raven
we broke the bread and drank the wine
left me in my tears to drown
she left a baby daughter
now the river's wide and deep and brown
she's crossing muddy waters
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 tears to drown
she left a baby daughter
now the river's wide and deep and brown
she's crossing muddy waters
now the river's wide and deep and brown
she's crossing muddy waters
