[Intro 1]
[Em][C][Em][C][Em][C]
[G][D][Em][C][Em][C][Em][C]
[G][D][Em]
It's been [C]thirty- one years

[Verse 1]
[Em]
Since she's [C]been in your [Em]arms
But don't [C]worry about [G]Mama
[D]Mama's got a good [Em]heart
And I'm not [C]looking for your love

[Verse 2]
[Em]
I'm only [C]sniffing out [Em]blood
Just a [C]little taste of [G]where
I [D]came from

[Verse 3]
And at the [Em]bottom [C]of this [G]river[D]
Is where I [Em]put you down to lay
[C]So I can live wit[G]h it[D]
And in my [Em]heart, heart,
[C]heart there are these [G]water[D]s
Where I [Em]put you down to lay
[C]While I learn to live wit[G]h it[D]
Until I'm [Em]free[C]
[Em][C][Em]
[C][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
And it's been [C]all my [Em]life
I've been [C]wondering on the inside
[Em]What we coul[C]d've had[G]
If you'd [D]had a part in [C]my
[Em]life
And there were [C]children involved

[Verse 5]
[Em]
And they were [C]brothers to [Em]me
Even [C]if we [G]never got to [D]meet

[Verse 6]
And at the [Em]bottom [C]of this [G]river[D]
Is where I [Em]put you down to lay
[C]So I can live wit[G]h it[D]
And in my [Em]heart, heart,
[C]heart there are these [G]water[D]s
Where I [Em]put you down to lay
[C]While I learn to live wit[G]h it
[D]Until I'm

[Verse 7]
[G]Free at last from this [Em]shadow that hangs
Surely you [C]wonder sometimes
And I'm sure you [G]all sympath[D]ize
Just what a [G]man's to become,
just like his [Em]daddy's done
I just want to [C]love someone
[G]Who has [D]the sam[Em]e blo[D]od
[Em][G][D][Em][C]

[Verse 8]
[G][D]
And at the [Em]bottom [C]of this [G]river[D]
Is where I [Em]put you down to lay
[C]So I can live wit[G]h it[D]
And in my [Em]heart, heart,
[C]heart there are these [G]water[D]s
Where I [Em]put you down to lay
[C]While I learn to live wit[G]h it[D]
[Em]Keepsake, [C]kee[Em]psake[C]
[Em]Unti[C]l I'[G]m [D]free[Em]
