B B C C F7 F7 G7 G7 G7+5 G7+5

Let it [C C] rain, let it [B B] pour
Let it [C C] rain a whole lot [F7 F7] more,
'Cause [C C] I got them deep river [G7 G7] blues, [G7+5 G7+5] [G7 G7]
Let the [C C] rain drive right [B B] on,
Let the [C C] waves sweep a[F7 F7]long,
'Cause [C C] I got them [G7 G7] deep river [C C] blues.
My old [C C] gal's a good old [B B] pal, she looks [C C] like a water [F7 F7] fowl,
When [C C] I get them deep river [G7 G7] blues, [G7+5 G7+5] [G7 G7]
Ain't no[C C] one to cry for [B B] me, the fishes [C C] have a grand old [F7 F7] spree
When [C C] I get them [G7 G7] deep river [C C] blues.
Instrumental – play first two verses
If my [C C] boat sinks with [B B] me, I'll go [C C] down, don't you [F7 F7] see,
'Cause [C C] I got them deep river [G7 G7] blues [G7+5 G7+5] [G7 G7]
I'm goin' [C C] back to Mussell [B B] Shoals, times are [C C] better there I'm [F7 F7] told,
'Cause [C C] I got them [G7 G7] deep river [C C] blues.
Instrumental – play first two verses
If my [C C] boat sinks with [B B] me, I'll go [C C] down, don't you [F7 F7] see,
'Cause [C C] I got them deep river [G7 G7] blues [G7+5 G7+5] [G7 G7]
Now I'm [C C] gonna say good[B B]bye, and [C C] if I sink, just let me [F7 F7] die,
'Cause [C C] I got them [G7 G7] deep river [C C] blues.
Let it [C C] rain, let it [B B] pour, let it [C C] rain a whole lot [F7 F7] more,
'Cause [C C] I got them deep river [G7 G7] blues, [G7+5 G7+5] [G7 G7]
Let the [C C] rain drive right [B B] on, let the [C C] waves sweep a[F7 F7]long,
'Cause [C C] I got them [G7 G7] deep river [C C] blues
'Cause [C C] I got them [G7 G7] deep river [C C] blues.
