Chorus:
 F#           E
Hold my hand
                    F#      E           B             D
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river
 F#           E
Hold my hand

Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down


1st verse:

B           D       F#          B
If you get sleep or if you get none
    F#           E           D        B
The cock's gonna call in the morning, baby
B          D                 F#      B
Check the cupboard for your daddy's gun
F#       E             D      B
Red sun rises like an early warning
     E            G             B          E
The Lord's gonna come for your first born son
    B          A            G         E
His hair's on fire and his heart is burning
   B          D               F#    B
So go to the river where the water runs
F#        E              D         B
Wash him deep where the tides are turning


bridge:

    F#      E
And if you fall
 G      F#
If you fall


Chorus:

 F#           E
Hold my hand
                    F#      E           B             D
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river
 F#           E
Hold my hand
                    F#      E        D       B
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down


2nd verse:

      B          D                F#       B
The wolves will chase you by the pale moonlight
 F#        E           D       B
Drunk and driven by a devil's hunger
 B          D          F#       B
Drive your son like a railroad spike
 F#       E             D        B
Into the water, let it pull him under
 E         G                 B     E
Don't you lift him, let him drown alive
     B         A            G       E
The good Lord speaks like a rolling thunder
 B        D              F#    B
Let that fever make the water rise
     F#
And let the river run dry

And I said
