When I was young I had a girl so pretty
G D C
When I was young I had a girl so true
G C G
But you left town and headed out for the city
G D C
And you said you were never coming back through
G C G, G D C
G C G
You got a mama and a papa, sister and a brother
G D C
But you ain't got no friends of mine
G C G
You know I cant tell the one from the other
G D C
And since you've been gone, Ive been losing my mind.
G D C
Chorus:
G D C
And if you find your way back to the river
G D C
Wont you wash my black water soul
G D C
Cause I have found my own way back to shelter
Em D/Fsus (mute)
But wont you fi----------nd your way back home
G C G, G D C (x2)
G C G
So I left town about a year ago
G D C
Ive been to New York, Tree Port, and Chicago
G C G
And every now and then I send a post card home
G D C
Cause being gone don't change being alone
G C G
So if you ever miss the cotton fields
G D C
You can find me hanging around the Moonshine Still
G C G
Come back home if your love is real
G D C
Cause I ain't scared of the way I feel
Chorus x2
